Mount Vernon Trail

This is a good trail with the satisfying distance. Beware, there are quite a few bumps in the pavement that could use some repair work.

Custis Trail

so so

September, 2023 by redlocs_99

Started at bon air rose garden and connected to the Curtis. Immediate under the highway you turn back east and hit a “hill”. I found myself vacillating between 22mph down hills to 4mph struggling up. Lol. The route runs along the interstate and goes up and down for the first 3-4miles and then dumps into Dc. Where you have a few cross streets to navigate and then runs along the river. It’s all paved, wide enough to pass, not too many blind corners, and despite the up and down, it was a decent little unexpected workout.

Chesapeake & Ohio Canal National Historical Park

It could be a 5 star

September, 2023 by jdietz4361

We rode a 10 mile section of trail north of the Williamsport visitors center. Sunny day, high 60’s. It was the day after a 30 minute rain storm. Trees were in full bloom. Why 2 stars when it could be a 5? The trail needs a good layer of hard packed stone. Any rain will turn many spots into mud, as we encountered. The trail rides along the Potomac River. You could just about see otherwise the trail is under cover. To make it a 5, make sure the trail has dried out and the leaves have not bloomed or the have already dropped. It would sure be a 5.

Chesapeake & Ohio Canal National Historical Park

Adventure awaits...

September, 2023 by kilroy55_tl

If you are a history buff, esp. of the civil war, this trail is a must, and I highly recommend making Antietam Battlefield part of your trail ride. The surface is bumpy in spots, but overall, a very enjoyable ride and something to be experienced, esp. seeing Washington DC magically appear at the end of a long journey from Cumberland, MD to DC. Favorite spots were the boardwalks bordering the Potomac River and Harper's Ferry, be sure to stop at HF see the surrounding start of the Shenandoah Valley and Harper's Ferry from the bridge connecting the trail to HF.

Washington and Old Dominion Railroad Regional Park (W&OD)

Too many road cyclists going way too fast! This is a trail not a road. So watch out if you want to leisurely ride your bike on this trail because they are flying by.

Indian Head Rail Trail

Just off Highway 301

August, 2023 by mackbrazelle

Flat long (13 miles) and smooth. Take a break from the traffic and go for a ride.

Metropolitan Branch Trail

Poor signage

July, 2023 by sgreene820

The trail is more like 8 miles one-way from Takoma Park to Union Station. The on-street portions are poorly marked, so expect to wander a bit. Fortunately, it's relatively easy to find your way around town. Lettered streets are East-West, numbered North-South, state names are diagonal avenues.

Dahlgren Railroad Heritage Trail

Currently Recommend Mountain Bikes Only

July, 2023 by rgbarch330

Four of us ONLY rode this trail between rte 605 (Western End Trailhead Parking) eastbound to rte 609 (crossing/Trailhead Parking) and return. Found many exposed tree roots, hazardous rusting railroad tracks, perpendicular decaying railroad ties and loose gravel resulting in a very bumpy and stressful ride. (With proper funding, this trail has enormous potential). Considering this Rails to Trail’s current condition, I would not use a road bike or trike and would be very cautious with a hybrid . I’d highly suggest a mountain bike with front fork suspension on Dahlgren Trail, considering it’s current condition! It’s has the potential to be an awesome 15+ mile Rail Trail!

Marvin Gaye Trail

so enjoyed

July, 2023 by jnsmith1082

Found this trail geocaching. It’s paved and beautiful view of a part of the city I had not seen.

Dahlgren Railroad Heritage Trail

careful directions at the church

July, 2023 by ib123

I started midway and headed east. The detour puts you out behind the church (2 miles before the Sheets endpoint) and then you're on your own. I went to the main road then took a right back towards where the trail was and never found it. I thought the Karoo was confused because of the detour. If I could zoom out on the karoo I'd have seen the route turns at the gate behind the church. Just check the map for this detail before embarking. the bumps aren't as bad as I was lead to believe, actually below standard bumpiness. The gravel is pea gravel, a bit thick in stretches so it slows you a bit. 2 deer 2 blue herons, 1 box turtle in 18 miles round trip.
