The Anacostia Riverwalk will be a 20-mile multi-use trail along the east and west banks of the Anacostia River stretching from Prince George’s County, Maryland to the Tidal Basin and the National Mall in Washington, DC. The Anacostia Riverwalk Trail is a key component of the plan to revitalize the Anacostia waterfront. The trail will enhance recreation, transportation, and economic development in the region. Construction has begun and is expected to be complete in 2014. The project is estimated to cost over $50 million.

When the Anacostia Riverwalk is complete, residents and visitors will be able to walk and bike along the trail to the following popular destinations: See a map of the Anacostia Riverwalk Trail
