This free trail is one you can walk/hike, run, or ride your bike on. It is over 250 miles. We walked on part of it since a portion of it is inside of the fort/national monument/shrine. It was a great walk. On it you have beautiful views of Baltimore and the harbor. Worth walking even if you just do some of it. Great exercise and it is a safe area.

Very enlightening experience. Seeing how people served and lived in early America was well worth the visit.

Love this place. Very historic and also spoke about the story of Francis Scott Key and the role the people of Baltimore played a role in defending the city against British forces during the War Of 1812.

Nice park to walk around the loop. It’s about one mile. The tickets are 15 to enter the fort. Plenty of free parking

As with the fort itself, the trail that surrounds it offers amazing views of Baltimore and the harbor. The trail is free and it gives you a great view of the fort. Don’t forget to check out Baltimore’s hottest stature, Orpheus, who beckons your call just outside of the fort on the side closest to Locust Point. Great spot for anyone looking for a quaint time.

Educational and informative. Wear good walking shoes. Helpful park Rangers.

It was fantastic, I love walking near water& watching the boats go by as I walk. I didn't stay as long this time, due to so many kids. It may have been summer camps. I thought, let the kids have their fun, I can always return once school reopened.

Very interesting, and easy to see everything in 2 hours. It was free for myself & my son because I have the senior card.

Lovely and clean area full of history. Maps are posted and the staff at the front desk inside were helpful and friendly! Wish the historic site was free.

Very good park. Awesome piece of American history. Now when you go, try to imagine the 30ft x 42ft flag "star spangled banner" was written for waving above the fort!

This is a very small museum; the entrance fee is 9$ for an adult. It starts with a video that presents the history of the flag that was made on site by Mary Pickersgill. This 10 min video is informative, but quite old (most likely done in the early 1980's). Then you can check the adjacent room with a few displays that will take you another 10-15 min to look at if you read everything; there is nothing on the second floor (at least when I visited). You then do a self guided tour of the small house where the flag was made. That visit will take you another 10-15 min. This visit of the house is interesting but not highly informative.

If you are coming to Baltimore THIS is the place you have to visit. This is the TOP of the list of places to see. A wonderful historic sight and a must for anybody interested in the history of the War of 1812, American History, American Military History, Maryland History, or even British History. I would suggest going during good weather. It will take about half a day so have a second place to visit afterwards.

I gave it one star I used to live in South Baltimore I lived there all my life movies out 2019 I can remember my Fort McHenry was free more tunnels to explore used to go a long ways on the the tunnels you need to go to Curtis Bay Fort Armistead State Park we used to go there to party go to the tunnels and caves some people go there to go fishing Baltimore is a city for black people only bye-bye

The trail goes along the perimeter of the fort. It is nice to wall, jog or run on this trial.

Very nice place with nice people. Every 10 minutes there is short movie which tells you the story of what happened in 1804 about this fort that gives you a great feeling of this place and history too :)

One of the top attractions in Baltimore. It is beautiful in the summer with nice water and downtown view. I saw few people go hear for a picnic

Went for a run along the parks path and walked the landmarks for the Fort. Learned about the song we all sing Star spangled banner.

It was a great historical experience. I would recommend it. 🇺🇸

Excellent video, presentations, facilities, educational & historical experience. Very special historic site and story. Highly recommend.

Intro video was very well done. The fort was informative

Always a great place to visit

Amazing exhibit in visitors center. Really neat displays in the fort. Beautiful views of the harbor.

Great location for touring the city. Wonderfully staff.

The presentation and artifacts are awe inspiring. Great place for a proper history lesson.

A great place for a bike ride and great views overall

I remembered visiting this place when I was in elementary school. I took my daughter and grandson there. My grandson is too young to understand. My daughter enjoyed the history and the scenery. I enjoyed those things also including, the nice walk near the water.

Even that I'm not American it was interesting to see and learn some American history. I would definitely say it's a must place for every tourist in Baltimore. Don't be cheap and pay the entrance fee, it's worth it!
