Anacostia Park follows the Anacostia River. It is open land with no fences between the public and the river. There is a historic retaining wall that borders the river in places. Children should be supervised at all times.
Dogs are allowed if kept leashed.
Fishing is regulated by DC Department of Environmental Health. It is the responsibility of the person fishing to know and follow regulations. You can get information from the Department of Environmental Health at (202)535-1660 Monday through Friday except holidays.
Open fires, dumping hot coals and other acts that could damage vegetation, structures or others are not permitted in any part of the park. If you bring a grill for those areas where grilling is allowed, come with a fire proof container to take hot coals home with you.

Did You Know?
The historic Rainbow Pool was reconstructed on a reduced scale and lowered six-feet from its previous elevation with all of its water jets restored, to become the center-piece of memorial plaza. The use of moving water throughout much of the memorial is a key element of its celebratory symbolism.
