Mount Vernon Trail - Washington, DC - Silent Bike Ride

Описание: The 20-mile Mount Vernon Trail is one of the Washington, D.C., metro area’s most popular trails. It passes through park sites, yacht clubs, wet-lands, neighborhoods, towns, and wooded acres. Just across the Potomac River from D.C. in Virginia, the trail links Theodore Roosevelt Island Park with George Washington’s estate in Mount Vernon.

The trail follows the course of the Potomac, linking Fairfax County and Alexandria to Arlington County and major Potomac River bridge crossings into the District of Columbia. The Mount Vernon Trail, along with the Four Mile Run Trail, the W&OD Trail, and the Custis Trail, make up the Arlington Loop.

This is by far the best biking trail in Washington DC. It is picturesque and winds along the Potomac River as it passes many of Americas most historic sites that can be seen from across the river. The trail winds alongside the beautiful Potomac River giving you views of the Washington DC monuments and skyline. It also takes you through parks, forested areas, wet-lands, and marinas. It is mostly paved but some sections are boardwalk. While the Mount Vernon Trail also parallels the George Washington National Parkway, it keeps trail users a safe distance from cars.
