Centennial Park

Centennial Park is a delightful 337-acre park located in Ellicott City, surrounding the banks of picturesque Centennial Lake.

The park lake is a prime spot for fishing throughout the year, stocked with bass, sunfish, tiger muskies, and trout by the State Department of Fisheries.

Its lovely landscaping, wetlands, and wooded areas have been awarded several area awards for sensitive ecological design.

Visitors can explore its lake shore via a 2.4-mile paved loop trail, which offers access to a boat ramp and boat rental areas.

7.4 miles of interconnected pathways and walking trails link to surrounding area neighborhoods. Day-use picnic pavilions are offered on a first-come, first-served basis.
