Do you want to build connections with LGBT folks from different generations? Join Capitol Hill Village for our monthly LGBT Intergenerational Meetup. This month, explore the Kenilworth Aquatic Gardens and enjoy a picnic after. There will be options for easy strolling or hiking based on your preference. 

The trail at Kenilworth Aquatic Gardens is gravel and wooden boardwalk and includes an elevation gain of 39ft and takes around 45 minutes to complete. It is noted as accessible for visitors using wheelchairs, mobility equipment, or strollers.

We will also have a hiking group taking the Anacostia Riverwalk Trail to Bladensburg Waterfront Park, which has a trailhead at Kenilworth Gardens. The Trail is partially paved and multi-use so we will have bikers and runners as well. Going from Kenilworth Gardens to Bladensburg Waterfront Park takes 48 minutes one way or 2.2 miles.

Kenilworth Aquatic Gardens is a 15 minutes walk from Deanwood Metro Station (Orange line), we are coordinating transportation from the Metro for anyone who may need it. Learn about accessibility of Kenilworth Aquatic Gardens at: https://www.nps.gov/keaq/planyourvisit/physical-mobility.htm
