Rock Creek Park

If you're looking for old school DC nature and majesty then RCP is what you seek. Carving through the city like an artery from Mother Nature, it has everything: parks , paths, and solitude. Enjoy!

Sprawling oasis in the middle of DC. Great for hiking , biking , running, and exploring. You'll find a new secret spot every time!

Coming from Calvert St, take the path to Montrose Park . At the fork, follow the path around the park . Turn right onto the bridge , pass the gates. There's a concrete bench on the left. It's cool.

This place was great for leisure hiking ! Beautiful sites and many picnic areas .

With 13 miles of bridle paths, the park makes a great place to ride. Located next to the Nature Center, the Horse Center offers riding lessons, guided trail rides, & pony rides . -- Green Guide Editor

Great place to go hiking , walk and spend some relaxing time.

Rock Creek Trail stretches from Lincoln Memorial clear up to the Capital Crescent Trail near Silver Springs, MD. Beware that some spots have seriously rutted pavement. www.bikabout.com/washington-dc

The largest urban deciduous forest in the States , Rock Creek Park was clear cut during the Civil War and later replanted.

Did you know? Some of the animals that make their home in Rock Creek Park include fox, coyotes, white-tailed deer, and 3 species of owl. Its also a resting area for many species of migratory birds. Read more

The hike and bike ???? trails and the national zoo as well

I have only done the trail that was blazed blue, it is good for when you are coordinating with a city friend who is afraid of the suburbs.

Do the Boulder Bridge Hike by following the pink trail markers.

President Reagan didn't always have to go back to his ranch in California to get a taste of the great outdoors. In 1983, he went horseback riding at the Park Police facility here in Rock Creek Park.

Walk/ run your dog on the far side of the creek to avoid traffic, then go over the bridge for picturesque views of the water rushing by.

Beautiful greenbelt in the heart of DC. Many parking options for visitors.

Perfect for hiking , biking or walks. Beautiful and peaceful . I love it!

Great trail here, goes all the way to the Lincoln Memorial . I used to live in Woodley Park and would run out there and back. It is also good for bike rides .

If you're biking , it's very hilly and the bike infrastructure isn't that great. Went into the park on a whim and was caught off guard .

Great place to walk and exercise, beautiful trees and water ways

Its very peaceful but make sure you're wearing boots or trail sneakers . Very rocky trails .

The best bike route is the one from Arlington to Rosslyn. The Georgetown trail connecting it to Rock Creek sucks, but it's worth it.

Biking , hiking , concerts , etc! If you live right behind, you may spot an occasional deer in your yard! :)

Need to recenter? 10 min at one of the car stops next to the river on beach drive will do the trick ! #thankmelater

My neighborhood park ! Find your own secret parking spot !!????

Run the hill that descends from Calvert , just by Open City cafe . Do it many times, many times---at least five. Set a goal of passing at least one biker on the way up.

Do this drive/hike in late Oct/early Nov for gorgeous Fall foliage in downtown DC

Great running trail but always busy!

Nice place for walks

One of the many picnic areas in Rock Creek Park. Read more

Nice place

When on the track go to the right with walking & running starting out...

Gliding out in nature! What a treat to have this right in our own backyards !

The deer r no longer afraid! Watch out for the foxes!

Stop at stop signs while biking . I just saw three bicyclists ticketed.

Pull up bars are the bomb

Bike , Hike and Walk freely on the Weekends because they close North Rock Creek off to traffic

If ur driving Beach Drive is close 4m 10/14-10/17 due to road work

I love this place!

There are trees here
