About

Baltimore Woods Nature Center fosters enduring stewardship of our natural world by offering immersive programs and a place in Central New York for everyone to cultivate appreciation and personal connections to nature through environmental education, recreation, play, and research. We put nature in your hands.

Part of the Central New York community since 1966, Baltimore Woods Nature Center is located on 182 acres of land in Marcellus. Visitors to Baltimore Woods come from the surrounding area to hike our trails and participate in our on-site nature day camps, public programs, and fundraising events.

In addition to on-site programming, Baltimore Woods’ award-winning Nature in the City program is in its 17th year, providing place-based hands-on, minds-on science education to all 19 elementary schools in the City of Syracuse.

Our trails are open to hikers everyday from dawn to dusk.
