Neighborhood with traditional rowhouses and multiple parks

The western Baltimore community of Rognel Heights rests between Hunting Ridge and Edmondson Village. A mere five miles from Downtown Baltimore, this small patchwork of residential streets is home to some 1,300 residents, anchored by a shopping center along Edmondson Avenue. Crescent-shaped Gwynns Falls Park encircles the north end of this neighborhood, giving locals a feel for the outdoors from the comfort of their suburban backyard. Multiple other small parks appear on the east side, offering ample opportunities to get active outdoors.

Riding the blue line into town

Because Rognel Heights is a small community, it is feasible to reach amenities by foot. Getting to Downtown Baltimore is easy with the CityLink blue line, which runs from the Edmondson Avenue station straight into town. This trip is a twenty-minute hop, comparable to driving oneself, minus the time it takes walking to the station.

Quality time outdoors at Rognel Heights

There is plenty to do outdoors in Rognel Heights, owing to its multiple parks. Gwynns Falls Park has 15 miles of trail for locals to hike or bike. This recreational area has been a local favorite for over a hundred years. Multiple landmarks are available to explore like the Orianda House, originally built in 1857. Residents can also take an afternoon to bird watch or practice their game on the tennis and basketball courts. Aspiring or experienced gardeners can pay a small fee and receive a 10-by-15-foot plot to plant their desired produce in the garden. One added benefit is that plots are fenced under lock and key for extra privacy. Rokeby Road Park and Flowerton Road Park are two smaller examples of great spots to throw a frisbee or have a picnic on a weekend afternoon.
