The 8 Best Nature & Parks in Frederick, Maryland (MD)

August 8, 2021 Kandra Bartel

With its collection of historic homes, museums and battlefields, Frederick, Maryland, is a must-see destination for any history enthusiast. The sites of two bloody Civil War battles are preserved at Monocacy National Park and South Mountain State Park. Within the city, visit the National Museum of Civil War Medicine and learn how soldiers wounded in those battles were treated, or visit the house of Barbara Fritchie and picture her hanging the Stars & Stripes in defiance of the Confederate Army.

Baker Park

Reviewed By W1702PJmarkg - Catonsville, United States

Baker Park is a 58 acre gem that meanders along the banks of Carroll Creek thru the heart of downtown Frederick. It is bordered by a historic neighborhood full of beautiful homes and only a short distance from Hood College. The park has baseball fields, a playground where we took our granddaughter, a lake, swimming pool, pavilions, a bandshell for summer concerts, gardens, fishing, trails, you name it. As nice as it is now, it must have been unbelievable for a small town Frederick when it was built in 1927.
