By far my favorite hiking spot in NOVA. Well maintained and marked trails. The Leopold trail is the perfect length at about 4 mi to take the edge off our German shorthaired pointer. Nice mix of field and forest cover. Bonus points, there are 3 breweries within 5 mi for an after hike pint.

This is a beautiful little park tucked back where you'd never find it if there weren't signs. Great trails that are well marked for a nice walk.
