Fort Ward Park

Lovely park for walking, playing, and learning! Plenty of parking along the paved walking trails, picnic areas, and historic sites. One of my favorite escapes from the city!

Really nice place to relax an enjoy any day of the week I love it

Nice park, wish restrooms were open in winter.

Very well kept. A small but beautiful hustoric site and park. Great for walking.

Great place for outdoor walking and jogging. Also, the Fort Ward Museum is worth visiting too.

One of the best parks if you are planning for a family or friends picnic, the park offers many BBQ grills and picnic tables. Plus the historical area if you wanna discover part of America's history

Beautiful during rainy days..... Great park for walking or picnics 🤠🤠🤠

Wonderfully accessible and maintained American Civil War Fort. A joy to visit for all ages.

Beautiful and relaxing park!! We enjoyed church outside in the amphitheater there during COVID.

Beautiful park, adorable playground. Loved walking around history.

Beautifull local history park, with multi picnic spots.

Got in a little walk and praise with
Beulah Baptist Church Alexandria,Va.

This is one small park inside the neighborhood. Very neat and comfortable for walking and running the 600ft round path. I go to this place twice or at least once a week. Children’s play ground, dog walking, running, walking, group reserved spots for BBQ, historic site and cemetery are some of the activities and spots you can get here. I love this place.

Great historical park with a museum and preserved fort. Essentially, it's the arboretum for the City of Alexandria. Nice picnic areas, trails, and it has a 1 km paved walking / running loop. Would love to see the amphitheater get more programming.

So,.this is.one.of.my favorite.parks. it's a historical spot for.starters and has multiple areas to enjoy a picnic, cook, and play. Situated around what is essentially a circular area,with ample.parking, this park is awesome for a.good walk. There are a.couple.of restrooms.around, an amphitheatre, a museum, and even an old cemetery. Definitely a positive feel in this park!!!

Realy cool and knowledgeable

This neighborhood park has several good characteristics for the public. There is a black top path that is shared with walkers and drivers seeking to a parking space. There are many trees that can provide shade. Picnic tables that can be reserved for special occasions. The park includes an outdoor arena for listening to music on specific dates(check events on state park website). There are several restrooms throughout the park. Handicap access is also available in most of the park.

Reenactors representing the 1st Connecticut Heavy Artillery demonstrated how Washington, DC was defended during 1861 - 1865 Civil War Era, during annual event, my second year.

Safe park near daughters home. Great place to walk little puppy.

Great place for kids to explore. Nice picnic facilities for large groups. The loop is shared by cars, bikes and pedestrians. Excellent place for running or walking with a friend without having to watch out for traffic. Also a decent birding spot.
