Theodore Roosevelt Island

Washington, District of Columbia

Welcome to Theodore Roosevelt Island located on the Potomac River in Washington DC. This island was once covered by overgrown neglected farmland but all that changed in the 1930's when it was restored by landscape architects. It is named for the 26th President of the United States, who happens to be one of my favorites. Come out and explore the trails.

The only way to access the island is via a pedestrian bridge off of the Mount Vernon Trail in Arlington, Virginia.

To contact the park office pleae call 703-289-2500.
