I love this little trail! You can hike from Tenleytown to Georgetown, and - in the spring and summer - you hardly know you are in the city, besides crossing a few streets! There are stairs, a bit of elevation change, a stream crossing, along with some wildlife to enjoy.

Beautiful walk down to Georgetown if you have the time it is absolutely breathtaking in this time of year.

A nice alternative to Rock Creek Park. Tucked away and relatively quiet, great for exercise during the pandemic.

Great, beginner friendly hiking trails surrounded with trees and little creeks. Relatively flat with tree roots and easy to follow trails. They have signs that tell you the distance to the destination as well. Very serene, multiple entrances.

Awesome oasis in the middle of the city, makes you feel youre in the forest far from the city. Great hiking trail that is usually surprisingly empty of people considering its in the middle of the city.

Well kept and quiet area with beautiful foliage to showcase during the fall,spring and summer.

Main trail is great with many side trails.

The Glover Archbold Trail is a beautiful urban hike just north of Georgetown that takes you through quaint neighborhoods like Foxhall Village and the Palisades all the way up to Tenleytown. Its well-marked and will take you through streams, hills, and fallen trees. If youre into D.C. history, theres an abandoned streetcar track from 1896 in the south part of the trail.

Nice little park to saunter into the woods for forest bathing.

Beautiful park with safe trails

Beautiful flat dirt trail that feels serene and secluded and only a stones throw away from the bustling city! Our dog enjoyed the trail and we passed lots of dog walkers along the way (there arent waste disposal bins though!).Theres a lot less foot traffic on this lesser known trail than Rock Creek Park (intersects with the Western Trail). The full trail starting from Cathedral Heights on Massachusetts Avenue to Foundry Branch Valley Park in Georgetown is around 5 miles.The trail is shaded with a canopy of pine trees and a nice creek. We walked over a log and saw a family of white tail deer at dusk. As you inch closer to Georgetown, the trail is overgrown, look out for poison ivy and bring bug spray!The trail has many entrances as we entered mid-way through the Glover Park Community Gardens on New Mexico Ave and 42nd Street. We spent about an hour leisurely walking 2.5 miles and landed at Georgetown Athletics Center, it was too dark to walk through Foundry Park. We walked 1/2 a mile down Canal Road past the Key Bridge to M Street.Wonderful underdog local trail that gets overlooked for the more popular Rock Creek Park. Great for fall foliage and furry friends!

Great place to hike whether you’re on two legs or four! Watch out for the construction signs and detour at the south end near GW.

Nice park to hike. Would be better once construction are done.

Good place to walk in the woods in NW DC

Nice spot to walk through. Very Zen.

This neighborhood is diverse and has an active population. Summer softball teams, gardens for vegetables, an arts venter, a special walkway of trees planted for famous Russians to honor the nearby Russian embassy. Large playground. Right at the top of Georgetown.

This is my favorite place for a morning or afternoon stroll! Occasionally I see deer in the park too. It’s so peaceful!

Love running here

Awesome place to go to. Beautiful

Nice woods for a hike with the kids or a jog on your own

A lot of DC locals pronounce it like clover but that is actually incorrect. It is pronounced like lover.

Amazing trail to walk/run while enjoying nature. Super clean. When I walk to Georgetown I prefer taking the trail than to walk on Wisconsin ave because i feel like I get faster to wherever I want to go. & I super love that I just have to cross the street to start my hike!

Great place to take the puppy for a stroll. Little piece of nature inside a giant city

Nice walking trail in the city.

Nice park but its in the middle of high traffic areas.

Nice little nature trail through the citys north west section.

Terrific restful green spot on the edge of Georgetown

Great running trail from Univ. of Georgetown to Kent, lots of side trails and creeks to explore and Dog friendly.

I work in this area& the people are very hospitable

Lovely trail - its a National Park Service (section of Rock Creek) moderate hike next to streams and established trees, perfect for a walk with friends. Its not well-marked, though, so check Google before you go for a longer hike.

I love reading here. The nature surrounds you and you forget about the city for a little bit. Very relaxing.

Nice trail for your walks

One of the best hiking areas in DC. Is not a huge area so it may get borring if visited a lot. However, it is densely wooded with nice trails so you can get away from the city feeling.

This park has a lot of potential to be a great city park. Currently it is overgrown, polluted, and has a feeling of being a little dangerous.This should be a multi use park that allows mountain bikers as well as hikers. Do do this the trails need to be redone to not only clear the overgrowth but also make them wider. New trails should be cut so that more of the area can be enjoyed.

The park is fabulous for the children. Zip line is so cool. Plenty to do there. Sand box, swings, tall structures.

It was awesome!

Great for trail running...

Aesthetics: 15/10Trails: 9/10Grassy fields: 0/10Dogs: 2/10Overall: good park. Good for running and appreciating nature, not good for making new dog friends.

Green grace and oxygen

Beautiful park with a great main trail that runs N-S, however, there are lingering issues. Erosion in the park is a serious prroblem and the lack of any maitence beyond removing fallen trees is not existent. Also, the extreme southern section has been closed for the past 9 months pending removal/covering of the old trolley trestle. I am not holding my breath on it being fixed soon.With that said, its a great urban park to run and hike through.

A hidden gem in DCs NW. Glover Archbold Park offers more solace than Rock Creek, and the feel of the park is different. Plus, it pops you out near Palisades -- if you take the correct route, you can end up having drinks at Black Salt.

Step into the depths of Glover Park, and youll forget you were ever in the city. The entrances usually start at the street level, then descend pretty quickly into the park itself. Its an immersive experience. You can hike the entire park, consisted of a moderate-difficult climb from Canal Road to Tenleytown. There are some wooden stairs to assist with the steep climb, but its mostly a dirt trail that can get narrow at times. The park is pretty dense, and you might even spot a deer here and there (on the lower branch area). I love running through the park. Its beautiful and serene, and the twists and turns in the path make it an enjoyable journey. #LetsGuide

Brilliant hidden park

Great place to walk your dog, run or just enjoy nature!

Long, narrow park with a dirt path that runs along the creek.

Great place to take a nice relaxing walk in the woods.

Quiet and wild, great forested hiking trails throughout the city.

A jewel in the middle of the city.

Great walking trail, tucked away from the noise

Great trees

Nice park for a morning run or just a moment to reflect.

Hard to believe that you are in the city

Lots of trails to walk

Great running trail.

Its a lot like a quiet and less-crowded Rock Creek Park (with a lot of dogs off-leash)

Good place to spend a few weeks. The locals usually leave you alone
