Description:
The Four Mile Run Trail traverses the Four Mile Run stream valley and has many twists and turns, not to mention steep sections (mercifully short). In places, the trail more or less parallels the W&OD Trail, connecting to it in several places.

Four Mile Run takes off from Bluemont Junction Park and heads to the Mount Vernon Trail where the latter meets the southern edge of Ronald Reagan National Airport and the Potomac River. The trail is wooded and crosses creek in numerous places. It's popular with runners, cyclists, dog-walkers and families. You'll also find a dog park off the trail in Shirlington. Phoenix Bikes, non-profit community bike shop, operates out of the Barcroft Sports Complex along Four Mile Run near George Mason Drive.

Great for my first ride
By mkameo in September, 2011
This was my first experience on a bike trail. I bought a bike a week ago and have been riding it on my trainer at home. Sense it finally stopped raining today I decide to brave the trail. Its was better then I expected I stared off riding toward Leesberg but I lost the trail. So I turned around and took the trail all the way to Shirlington. The trail was great, nice and paved and a smooth ride, and the people on the trail seamed very nice. I will say this the trail down to Shirlington seams a bit down hill and the right back seams all up hill so save your energy. All in all I had a blast and will be back tomorrow to see if I can beat my 18mil ride today.
