Patuxent River Park, Governor Bridge Natural Area and Canoe Launch

The Governor Bridge Natural Area has approximately 2 miles of natural surface trails for hikers and bicyclists. It is an excellent area for bird watching and nature study. All trails are identified by white fiberglass markers with color coded diamond directional arrows. Users are encouraged to evaluate trail conditions prior to use and follow proper trail etiquette. A map is available by calling 301 627-7074.
