Where's My Bench? - Enjoy a Walk in Montgomery County (plus location of rest stops)


Developed by Empowering the Ages in partnership with Montgomery County.

Where's My Bench?  is live!!!!

This free resource is for older adults, differently-abled people, and ANYONE who wants to be able to rest safely when they go outside walking (currently available in Montgomery County, Maryland). Dozens of local teens walked miles to gather data for our searchable map, pinpointing each bench location—along with info on how many people can sit, what material the bench is made of, whether a drinking fountain is nearby, and any tips needed to find the spot. 

If you would like to volunteer to find benches, or let us know about an area of the County that needs more information, please get in touch.


Happy walking!
