Officially established in 1965, National Mall and Memorial Parks actually protects some of the older parkland in the National Park System. Areas within this premier park provide visitors with ample opportunities to commemorate presidential legacies; honor the courage and sacrifice of war veterans; and celebrate the United States commitment to freedom and equality.
Constitution Gardens offers a 1.17km paved walking trail through a historic park setting in Washington DC's National Mall, with just 4.6m of elevation gain. This serene path circles a peaceful lake and provides access to numerous presidential memorials and monuments, offering visitors a perfect blend of American history and landscaped natural beauty.
