Turkey Run Park
McLean, VA - Park
Have you been to Turkey Run Park before? Beautiful Park high above the Potomac and then you can take stairs down to the water! It was super cold this weekend, so I confess my son and I only lasted 20 mins (swipe to see our epic tic-tac-toe battle!) but my husband and daughter went all the way under GW Parkway, across the creeks a couple of times and loved their hour+ walk! The @nationalparkservice website calls it: “a vertical slice of the Potomac Gorge ecosystem” which is a great description! There is a 0.75-mile loop you can take or many more trails that connect to other parts of the park.
