Beautiful walks along the Virginia side of the Potomac River, and the area known as Great Falls. Most of the trails are easy to moderate, but with a fast pace, you can still get a good workout. Lots of scenic overlooks of the river, and the falls. Weekends can get pretty crowded, and parking fills up quickly, so get there early.
Great views. Friendly knowledgeable staff. Well maintained park/restrooms/trails. Lots of room to socially/physically distance. My favorite is the walk from RBP to Great Falls National Park along the Potomac. During the summer they rent kayaks and canoes which is the best way to view the park. Expect short parking delays on nice weekends. No entry fees
The Halloween Mystery at the Cabin event from Parktakes was great fun for the inquiring mind and adventurous spirit of our third grader. She had a blast and we enjoyed the clever staff interpretations of historic Fairfax county inhabitants and the cozy fire and treats in an idyllic autumn setting. Nicely done!
Great park for walking/jogging, very shaded which is nice for a hot/sunny day. You might run into some spider webs on your walk which can be a bit annoying, but I still like it. Can't beat the view of the river..love it! Probably not a good place for strollers, certain trails in that park might be a bit more strollers friendly, but not the one closest to the river that we were on. I recommend going with a friend.
Great hiking with or without kids.
