Broad Creek Trail

Features Fall Colors · River/Creek · Wildlife

There are natural trail access points behind Annapolis High School, Anne Arundel County Health Department, the library headquarters, and Recreation and Parks headquarters.

The trail is well-blazed in most spots.

The trail has several access points behind the public buildings, along with the trailhead located behind the library headquarters building. Hikers will move east, slowly dropping in elevation, before a few switchbacks bring the hiker to the river. The trail then moves east along the river, which is unfortunately littered with a few tires. The trail again moves up in elevation as the trail begins to turn north. Overall it's a quick and fairly easy mile-long loop.

Deer and snakes can be found here.
