Wyman Park-Stoney Run Trail - Baltimore Maryland Hikes

Escape the city without leaving it as you hike through a wooded riparian buffer in the neighborhoods of Wyman Park and historic Roland Park, part of the vision of famed American urban architect Frederick Law Olmsted. When you reach the path, head right so you can rightly claim hiking the entire trail end to end since parking is impossible at the southern terminus—but it’s only 0.4 mile to the end. Along the way, you’ll cross under a stone bridge below Remington Avenue; a second, larger bridge soon appears, and you’ll hear the traffic crossing overhead on Keswick Road. Stay on the trail down toward the water, which disappears in a thick stand of exposed vegetation and plunges underground, eventually making its way to the harbor downtown.
