Neighborhood

Truxtun Heights

Truxtun Heights offers a starting point for family activities around Silopanna Road and nearby Truxtun Park. Use the museum address and the City’s park map to choose the right entrance.

Start with Silopanna Road

Truxtun Heights is an Annapolis neighborhood near a cluster of family and outdoor destinations. The Chesapeake Children’s Museum at 25 Silopanna Road is a concrete place to begin. It offers advance tickets and asks larger groups to call before booking, so a family visit and an organized group outing use different planning steps.

Explore the Chesapeake through play

The National Park Service’s museum description highlights hands-on learning about the Chesapeake watershed, interactive exhibits and outdoor exploration. That makes the museum useful for younger visitors who want to engage with the Bay through activities. Choose the museum’s current ticket or family-program information for the visit you have in mind.

Choose a specific park destination

Nearby Truxtun Park contains several facilities with different approaches. The City’s 2026 park map puts the Pip Moyer Recreation Center near Hilltop Lane, the Dunn Municipal Pool on Pump House Road, and the boat ramp at the end of Truxtun Park Road. Pavilions line Pump House Road, while courts and playing fields occupy other parts of the park. Use the named facility when navigating; the neighborhood, museum and park are distinct destinations.
