Description

Next time you have out-of-town guests, why not bring them on a walking tour of Dumbarton Oaks Park?


Up to ten (10) of your friends and family members will walk with one of the park's staff or board members as an escort; the tour will highlight the private estate history, design, current uses, and restoration of this park gem hidden between Massachusetts and Wisconsin Avenues, the Naval Observatory, and Harvard's Dumbarton Oaks (the formal gardens and museum) on R Street, NW.


The estate was designed by Beatrix Farrand, America's first female landscape architect! Stroll and learn about the park's design and efforts to restore the garden to its original design and ecological health. A warm Spring afternoon walk will bring beauty and joy to your day!
