The Nature Center is located at the county’s nearly 500-acre Marshy Point Park, which when combined with neighboring county, state, and federal land, creates a natural preserve encompassing over 3,000 acres. MPNC welcomes hikers, birdwatchers, and nature-lovers of all types.  The nature center building is open from 9 a.m. - 5 p.m. every day except Baltimore County government holidays. Park hours are 9:00 am - dusk. Throughout the year, the Nature Center hosts an array of environmental, recreational and educational activities for people of all ages.
