My husband, our two adult sons & I rode the trail yesterday. We hopped on at Unlimited Biking where we rented a bike for one son. Highly recommended. Employee was polite & had everything all re when we arrived. You can access the trail right there. We first rode north to Reagan Airport to watch the planes. That section was very busy! Lots of walker, dogs & bikes so be careful. Then we turned back south & had lunch before getting back on to ride to the end at George & Martha’s place. Much less crowded. Nice ride!
I did an up and back 35 miles. Great paved trail and. It many people at this end. Looking forward to riding the rest. I hate dc traffic
Great walk to end the month on. Beautiful scenery mostly flat.
This short trail is over a creek that separates Tysons office and retail developments from residential areas. There are various side trails not on this map along the creek as well. The area is dubbed “Tysons Last Forest” by neighbors who fought to preserve the area from development prior to its opening in 2019.
The path in some areas were easily accessible and shown however coming from takoma the signage was not very well maintained…the bike trail was on side and the signage on the opposite side. Luckily I know the area to get to the actual trail. Other than that, it was a pleasant bike trail.
The Washington & Old Dominion is the best trail hands down. It is also one of the busiest trails that hosts running clubs, cycling clubs, nature walkers, neighborhood walkers, walking and biking commuters and is at its busiest before 7 am in extreme heat.
What makes this 44 mile trail so unique is the amenities that sit along side of it making it the best trail to plan an activity on with family and friends. Just pick a city that you want to visit and you can find convenience stores adjacent to the trail within walking distance as well as myriad of restaurants for all ages, ice cream parlors, grooming services, bike shops and over the past few years breweries have been added to the scenery right on the trail.
The location is prime to the cities of Northern Virginia with access to getting into Washington DC to see the monuments and Hains Point. Nothing beats the W&OD Trail!
Parked at Carroll Park to get on the trail and I’ll never do that again. Credit to the numerous homeless people gathered around and the guy actively infecting drugs into his arm for not breaking into my car for the 90 minutes I was on the trail. Graffiti everywhere and quite a bit of trash. Once you get to Leakin Park it’s actually pretty nice. I’m pretty new to Baltimore and I’m really hoping it has better bike trails to offer than this.
Good pavement, gentle inclines, wildlife, views, benches. Only drawback is crossing multiple busy roads.
Rode 12 miles today. Started at Bloomsbury Rd., went to milepost 6 (2 miles past Comorn Rd) and turned around. The 4 miles out and back from Comorn Rd seemed more like for mountain biking. Very rough with deep rocks and many exposed roots and RR ties. On the Bloomsbury end there is still rail in place and you must cross the uneven exposed rails once. 2 of the 6 bikers we saw had accidents crossing the rails.
This is probably the most I could handle on a bike ride. We rode the GAP and C&O back to back like many do in 8 days. It was great fun but the C&O is noticeably rougher, fewer port-a-Johns and very scarce potable water sources. On our 7th day from Williamsport to Brunswick we ran out of water midway and rode the remaining 25 miles without water. Fortunately the shade offered by the beautiful canopy of trees made it bearable. We made sure to load up on extra water on our final day. The mix of loose sand that caught us by surprise & the larger stones on the trail made for a more challenging ride than expected. On the one rainy day we had from Cumberland to Little Orleans, some of the puddles we encountered offered a new sense of “oh dear” as we didn’t know how deep the hole we were riding thru when there was no room to go around the puddle.
