Haviland Mill Park
There is a 1,250-foot universal access pathway at Haviland Mill Park that allows visitors to view the Patuxent River from an observation deck. Wooded areas and scrub/shrub in the park provide habitat for birds and pollinators.
The proposal was first discussed in 2013 after Project Healing Waters Fly Fishing, Inc. at Fort Meade contacted the county about creating an accessible spot to view the river. Construction of the pathway, which finally began in June 2021, includes the addition of a beautiful boardwalk, bridges, natural surface pathway, and dry stack stone walls to create the trail loop at the previously undeveloped park facility.
