Pemberton Park is located on Pemberton Drive on the west side of Salisbury, Maryland, just a short distance from Route 50. The park's 262 acres offers the opportunity to hike 4.5 miles of Maryland nature trails, appreciate the beauty of nature and participate in environmental education, historical interpretation or special event activities. Informational brochures are available in the contact building near the parking lot. Brochures include trail guides illustrating various environmental features, bird and plant brochures and special event listings. Information is also available regarding "Friends of Pemberton" membership.
 
While hiking the trails, you will encounter ecosystems and their natural complement of plants and animals that are specific to many different regions of the Eastern Shore. It is rare to find any other place on the Eastern Shore where tidal and fresh water wetlands, fresh water ponds, upland pines, hardwood forests and meadows can all be studied within the same site. This unique feature, when coupled with the historical aspects of Pemberton Park, makes it especially attractive for school studies or a casual hike.

Peaceful oasis. Great trails. Lots of quiet places for contemplation. I've never been inside the historic house, but even peeking through the window to see the kitchen is fascinating. More so, the white wooden box near the house is said to be a 'torture box'. They were used during slavery days for punishment. Assuming it was rebuilt when the property was restored. 🙏🏾 🤲🏽

I find myself in the area about once per month. It took forever to find a trail to run/hike, but this was a gem once it was located. The trails are nice, clean, and variable. The signs need to be cleaned up and clarified as which trail you are on, but otherwise, an enjoyable outlet.
