Dumbarton Oaks Park

Tulips at Dumbarton Oaks in Georgetown, Washington DC, USA.

Next door to Dumbarton Oaks garden, Dumbarton Oaks Park was once part of the estate but is now a public woodland beloved by joggers and dog walkers. Access it via Lovers' Lane (a paved path 200ft east of R and 31st Sts) and enter a world of forested trails, quaint stone bridges, mini waterfalls and deer-filled meadows.
