Great easy trails with variable terrain. My favorite neighborhood oasis for when I need a taste of nature but dont want to battle traffic. You can get 2-3 miles without too much repetition.

Hour long hike in a cool shady wooded area. Put a public restroom out front and a water fountain and 5/5.

Why do others insist on making this place a broken glass factory. I am concerned about my dog cutting open his paws.

The trails extend much further than expected. I went for a short walk and ended up spending a good amount of time hiking. Nice park.

Wide, extensive historic grounds; highlight was the guided mansion tour, including a scenic view of the Potomac; no photographs allowed in the house; had to wait a while in line to get in on a rainy Saturday; there are scheduled events at the outdoor area on the Potomac end of the property (wine/dine evenings, etc.)

A perfectly secluded get-away with dirt trails and stream-crossings. Dont get lost!

The park area looks beautiful, but we did not spend much time in it. We were there for the tour of George Washingtons home.

Wide open dog park. No shade, which is disappointing in the summer, but plenty of water for the doggos

This location has beautiful, fairly well-maintained wooded trails, but they are not well-marked and as far as I could tell, there are few if any posted maps. There are some elevation shifts that would make it challenging for any but the most rugged of jogging strollers. As a note, you can park behind the Mount Vernon RECenter (southmost space, also behind the library) to easily access the trail system.

Review №25

Recent high winds toppled several trees, blocking some of the dirt paths. There is also a paved path along the edge of the park that is convenient to the library and Rec Center.
