Cylburn Arboretum was absolutely beautiful! I captured an engagement session there a month ago. This was my first time visiting the property in person. What a treat the locals have to be able to utilize the ground for picnics, walks, or just a relaxing day outside. The well kept landscaping was beautiful along with the different unique trees and florals on the property. I certainly look forward too visiting again next season. Please see a few of the images I captured below.
Its always peaceful and spacious every time I visit. There are good trails, both paved and unpaved. In the spring, when the trees bloom, youll find a great variety of flowers and pollinators. The trees are all labeled in case you want to learn more.Its a magnificent place to find tranquility in Baltimore.Closed on Mondays.
Cylburn is beautiful. The ground are well kept and you can walk mostly anywhere. The trails are well-maintained and the gardens are lovely. A great place for a picnic or to walk your dog (on leash!). I highly recommend it as a free outdoor activity thats educational and fun.
There is beauty to be found in Baltimore, if you know where to look! Hundreds of naturalized daffodils in bloom, on manicured grounds surrounding an imposing mansion. Built in 1863 in the Victorian Renaissance style, this was the summer home of Jesse Tyson, owner of Allied Chemical. There are formal gardens, hiking trails, and bicycle paths. A very serene place, and I saw many people walking their dogs or just enjoying a family outing.
Great place for a family hike with the dog. Miles of casual to challenging trails that are never far from your car. Lots of people getting family and romantic photos taken today.
This is one of our favourite family places to visit. It is wide open in their following all of the coronavirus safety measures. Often, we are the only ones there! The trees are beautiful, the grasses lush, the paths are wide and spacious. Most of the facilities are closed but we live nearby so it really doesnt matter! There plenty of places set and enjoy the well planned out gardens and well tended trees
Beautiful grounds - a local favorite for family photos. The kids classes are really fun and engaging.
Very nice park to visit. The view is gorgeous.
The grounds are very diverse and beautiful. The Victorian mansion has incredible architecture, albeit a little run down. Other than needing a little love its a worthy place to visit!
Nice wooded trails. Beautiful grounds with flower gardens. Arboretum is closed during the pandemic.
Very beautiful and relaxing place, lots of green spaces to sit down and have a picnic, many walking trails to explore, and there a lot of flowers. Dog friendly space.
I love spending time here. Its such a lovely place to be
Absolutely Beautiful! A wonderful place to go for any reason or just to get away to an enchanted place.
This is a fantastic location. Lots of places to walk, flowers to see and small. Not sure of the Mansion is ever open for tours or not. It would be pretty awesome to walk around in there. Looking in the windows the place looks awesome.We walked the grounds and took a few trails. One area has a gate and upon closer inspection it was just there to keep the deer out. So we strolled through and enjoyed the quiet serenity of the nature around us.Oh and how many places can you go to thats free in this day and age? Well heres one and I recommend visiting it.
Fun place for a walk. Lots of flowers. Good for kids
Sooo beautiful. Not a lot of ppl which made it even better.
Such a tranquil place on the way into the city. I have visited the Arboretum since before the new building (Vollmer Center) and paved road. Its as beautiful as it ever was.Take a break from the mundane... find a fairy.... view the azaleas.Plenty of parking, living classrooms, and the new building is open from 8-5p. Dunno the mansion (Cylburn mansion) hours, but they host events and you can rent the mansion or new building for a fee.Its worth a visit.
I love this place. It is so beautiful. The trails are nice nd the mansion is gorgeous. It has that old smell that just makes you wonder how was life living there.
Great place to take a leisurely walk! There are a few wooded trails to explore along with paved paths near the gardens. Some of the arboretums larger trees are truly breathtaking.
Great place to meet a friend and stay socially distanced!
The trees and flowers were so beautiful. Was slightly disappointed that the mansion was closed but a good time was had by all.
Cylburn is a gem in the city. Great staff. Wonderful event space. Easy access. And a lovely mix of formal gardens/landscaping and well-marked forest trails.
I didn’t think there would be much to this place because of the fact that it was winter but to be honest, there still was a lot to see. I very much enjoyed the walk, and the endangered red wood. I will be returning in spring when everything is in bloom but the view of the mansion from the gardens are beautiful. I was only disappointed that I was not able to view the inside of the mansion as it was closed for a private event... oh well, maybe another time
I visited this establishment to attend the vegan love cookout event. I have to say I loved it I met some really nice Queens and enjoyed some pretty good food. I purchased some organic eyeshadow and some smelling great massage oil made with lemongrass and ginger scent. I took a picture with ASE water bottle and The DJ was the bomb.
Clean with Covid standards in place, open spaces to enjoy, well kept grounds, a joy to have for some respite!
I love Clyburn Mansion. It was impressive and a fun place to visit. Its a superb place with lots of various plants, and everything is specified. There are a group of different garden areas, some walking trails, and an appealing manner, so something for everyone.
Great place for peace, hiking and to take your dog! We enjoyed our afternoon on the Ravine Trail which we had all to ourselves. Free parking with plenty of spaces. Beautiful landscaping. Will def be back!
Beautiful gardens, always something different in bloom, and close to my work at Sinai Hospital.
Oh, my! How do you know when you reached heaven? Youll have total peace. Peace is what I experienced on these maticulously kept grounds. The staff was friendly and knowledgeable. Please visit, you wont be disappointed.
We got married on 9-5-20 here beautiful pl
Beautiful park with nice trails. Closes at sunset though and they WILL lock you in. I know from experience..
I always love visiting Cylburn Arboretum. Its beautiful in any season, and very informative for anyone who wants to learn about plants.
Its a beautiful escape from the city within the city.I wasnt expecting the really nice trails and its dog friendly which is great.
Cylburn is a wonderful place with trees, paths through the woods, gardens, statues and greenhouses. I think this place is a gem in the middle of Baltimore.
It was a great afternoon. Pleasant, peaceful, and clean.
I always love the quiet atmosphere there.
The trails were nice and shady. They are an easy stroll and the gardens are pretty. I was surprised to see some hibiscus flowers. The downside is that the mansion is closed on the weekends.
A nice place to enjoy trees, trails, and flowers
Great place to take kids or pets for a walk. Occasionally has events. Lovely space and is frequently the forgotten gem of open space in Baltimore city
A great park with lots of educational programs. Also a beautiful wedding venue.
Its pretty nice this time of year.
Gorgeous place!
Beautiful and peaceful for an afternoon walk.
Beautiful grounds, beautiful place for a picnic or whatever.
Beautiful area, but the Mansion was closed due to Covid19 and not too many flowers in June.Would love to return.
Its an amazing place to have picnics, dates or play with kids.
I wish it was open later in the winter season...at least till 5:30. We get some warm days in February and the son sets close to6p
Been here for fun, weddings, and relaxing. Wonderful place to be in the city.
Beautiful spot for a picnic, walk, or just to hang out.
Gorgeous spot in the middle of Baltimore. Worth a few hours on a lazy afternoon
Peace, beauty and tranquility in the city. It is beautiful.
My kids -6 and 4 years old- enjoyed biking on one of the trails.
Very pretty place within Baltimore city.
Beautiful grounds, good for relaxing, and taking walks, and pictures.
A beautiful secluded place to spend an afternoon with the kids. Clyburn Mansion was impressive and a fun place to visit.
Absolutely gorgeous. A real reprieve from the pressures of urban life. You can stroll, sit on a bench or the grass, smell the flowers, and cool off in the summer at the nice little visitor center.
I love it! The trees! The trails!
Beautiful example of Marylands history and natural beauty.
The most lovely gardens at Baltimore. Getting better every time I visit!!
Awesome Wedding Event. great customer service that I met with and staff! This place is such a gem
Nice place to take some photos.
Nice place to have a picnic or relax with the family.
Great location for some portraits. Website says you need a permit however, I made it through with no issues. Fyi also has some great trails if your feeling adventurous
Great stop. Well kept. Most plants marked. Many presentations offered
Relax on the lawn and benches. Discover mature unique trees, take in the mansion and Nature Museum. Walk the woodland trails and discover. This is my closest best chill place. OH, the Jones Falls Trail drops in here if you are riding Baltimore One Park.
Beautiful, even before spring hits!
It’s a peaceful and beautiful place, if you want to just be with nature.
I origi ally wanted to walk around, but it ended up pouring rain and cold. But the mansion was nice a little dissapiubted we could only go stay on the first floor. I did walk around some outside and from the little I saw it was very beautiful. Even sawant few deer.
We used this location for my Granddaughters photo shoot to celebrate her 1st birthday.I noticed an event being setup at the Mansion House on the property also. Looks like a great location for Weddings and fundraising events.For a quiet inner city getaway for a few hours this is a good choice.
A cool place to detox in the middle of the city. A relaxing and beautiful scene to unwind with your loved ones and have a simple picnic. It has convenient benches everywhere and open from 8am to 8pm. Well maintained and all the different plants are labelled clearly. Must visit, for the history, the knowledge and the charm of it all.
Cute place in mount Washington. lovely in spring when flowers are starting to bloom.
Great place for photo shoots
Awesome atmosphere and peaceful. I love this place to read meditate or just sit and see the beauty. Its a great place to go to relax and I will continue to go there for a very long time. Its also a great place to go for a walk.
Fantastic spot to take a walk or just relax and enjoy nature. Parking was plentiful and area is well signed.There is a trail that runs the perimeter of the park if you are looking for a walk in the woods. Otherwise you can walk the grounds and explore the various gardens. Lots of different plants and trees with seating areas throughout. There is also a visitor center and mansion on the grounds and public restrooms. The park is free and open to public year round. It is also dog friendly except for the buildings. Great place to come for a picnic.
A peaceful oasis in the midst of a bustling city.
Awesome resource, my favorite place to go for a hike when I dont have time to make it outside the city. The landscaped grounds are beautiful and the trails are wooded and a bit more wild but still well maintained.
One of the most accessible and enjoyable botanical gardens Ive visited. You can follow the trails and see the flora up close. Beautiful and colorful Japanese Maples are the my fav and seeing several healthy Dogwoods made me smile. Also FREE! Great place to end a date or get away.
This is a great spot for a relaxing stroll through gardens and wooded trails. The crew here keeps the place looking immaculate, and you can tell there is lots of energy devoted to the flora. The staff were friendly and helpful to us when we visited. There could be very different blooms when you visit, so be sure to check back on whats seasonal. What a nice oasis in the middle of the city!
So peaceful and beautiful! A few tables but mostly open space great for a picnic! And the trees are labeled with the type and scientific name. So cool!
Beautiful flowers and great walking trails.
Great place for a picnic and walk
Building is closed on the weekends. Grounds need additional maintenance.
Amazing place. Nice trails and pretty plants, even in the winter.
This is a beautifully kept gem in Baltimore City and is great for a day out with the family or friends or a significant other. I was here for a wedding and wedding reception and it was a blast and beautiful. I imagine its a great place to visit if you want an hour or two (or more) of solitude and relaxation as the grounds are impeccably kept. There are benches scattered throughout and lots of greenery for your enjoyment. Will definitely be taking a trip back, maybe with just my ear buds or perhaps a good book... or both! Check it out!
Love at first sight. I cant wait to go back.
Why have I visited, then lived in Baltimore all these years and NEVER heard of this wonderful place? Beautiful is an understatement. The grounds are free to visit and walk around. There is plenty to see and the mansion is pretty cool. I saw lots of photographers taking wedding photos. I cant believe I am just now locating this gem!
Love it.. We love it so much we give 20 percent off of services here
We love Cylburn! Its a gorgeous place with lots of different flora, and everything is labeled. There are a bunch of different garden areas, a beautiful manor, and some walking trails, so something for everyone. Great for picnics, photography, or just a day out.
Nice relaxing place
Peaceful place, beautiful nature.
If you would like to enjoy the beautiful park and a wonderful nature with many species of trees, plants and flowers from all over the world its the right place to be!
Beautiful place to hike
Comfortable open spaces, some parts of the old mansion can be viewed, plants appropriate to the season, and a nature center.
So Beautiful Here! It Smells So Good!!! A great place to Chill in Nature!
The Cylburn Arboretum is one of my favorite spots to take pictures and portraits. The grounds are always well maintained and the place is super easy to get to. Walk around and take in some of the property and take lots of pics. They are also dog friendly as long as your doggo is leashed.
It was my first visit, to Cylburn Arboretum, but certainly not my last! It is a beautiful property. Next time Ill walk around - explore. I read that the trees are labeled, so you know what they are.
