Lake Roland Park

Lovely trails, good birding, huge dog park, playground, visitors center

Great park and staff. A bit busy. Lost my prescription glasses here, black aviators with amber lenses,
Safety glasses. staff have been helpful. It’s nice to not feel alone when I need help.

Having had the chance to drive around to a couple parks in Baltimore, I will say — beautiful. Maybe it was just coming after a rain on a hot day, but the park was stunning to drive through and to sit for moments to just enjoy the scenery. Worth the little drive out of the city to see!

Note: The turnoff the highway is quick and could use better signage.

Beautiful park to check out if you're in the area. Soothing sounds come from the dam, great playground for kids, trails to explore with your favorite furry friends and a great nature center. Take lunch and have a seat at one of the many picnic tables available. There is a steep hill but not to bad. Port-a-potties available if needed.

Just an amazing little oasis in the north City. Trails, pavilions, huge playground and fantastic dog park. We’ll kept, very well run, go and enjoy.

A very nice park, with good walking paths.

There are several nice trails ranging from less than a mile to around 5 miles; all pretty easy, and well maintained. There are some parts of the trails that hold water well, so where appropriate shoes. It has childrens playground as well as a doggy playground, and plenty of nice sights to see throughout. Restrooms and Porta pots in different areas.

Loved visiting this park ever since I was young and saw the ownership transition from Baltimore City to County along with the changes that came with it. The scenery here is beautiful throughout the season and the trails are super accessible for most people. The Nature Center (with a restroom), picnic tables, gazebos, and playgrounds are nice additions to the park for a family-friendly outing. The park rangers are super helpful and nice to visitors of the park if you need directions to a trail or just answering general questions. There’s lots to do at the park from hiking, visiting the dog park, photographing wildlife, and fishing on the lake. As far as fishing goes, you can catch bluegill, sunfish, crappie, largemouth bass, bullhead catfish and carp. Fishing here can be good at times and there are different species to catch year round. For being located right on the Baltimore City-County border this park has lots to offer as far as outdoor activities.
