Important Information About Your Visit
We're working on major enhancements to some of our paths and wildlife habitats, and significant restoration and preservation at the Mansion. As a result, there will be some temporary changes to the existing paths at Maymont through spring of 2026. The wildlife habitats will be inaccessible during construction, with the exception of the bison habitat.
The vast majority of Maymont’s 100 acres will be unaffected. The historic gardens, Maymont Farm, Robins Nature Center, and most of Maymont’s miles of walking paths are still open and ready for you to explore.
Take a walk on the wild side, or a stroll if you prefer, at Maymont’s outdoor wildlife habitats. All habitats feature Virginia native species (historic and present), most of which are wildlife rescues, in our 40-acre valley located between the historic estate, the Maymont Farm and The Robins Nature Center. When the Virginia Wildlife Trail reopens in spring 2026, the animals in our Raptor Valley, Bobcat, Red Fox, Black Bear, and Bald Eagle habitats will be on view daily by 10am and move back indoors in the late afternoon. Come early to increase your chances of seeing our wildlife when they are most active!
We do not accept wild or domestic animals from the public.
