The Washington, DC Neighborhood Heritage Trails showcases Washington’s diverse neighborhoods for residents and visitors alike. A self-guided walking trail will be marked with poster-sized signs with text and pictures that tells our neighborhoods’ stories. A trail typically takes 90 minutes to walk, and begins and ends at a Metro station.

Please help us discover the most interesting historic events that happened here,

and the fascinating people who lived, played, and worked here.

Longtime residents, newcomers, and former residents are all encouraged and welcome to attend.

You can see Neighborhood Heritage Trails in Greater U St, Downtown, Southwest, Barracks Row, Shaw, Adams Morgan, Tenleytown, and Mount Pleasant. Trails are underway in Brightwood, Deanwood, Columbia Heights, Anacostia, Georgia Ave/Pleasant Plains and others.
