【推荐1】4 Trails(小径) to Explore in Washington, DC
Klingle Valley Trail
This trail is just under a mile in length, but makes for a scenic ride or walk at any time of year. Completed in 2017, the trail now serves as an ideal place for nature lovers. Some notable features of the trail include its permeable pavement(可渗透的路面), which prevents rainwater runoff, its connection to the Tregaron Conservancy paths and trail network, and its wonderful view of the Connecticut Avenue NW Bridge.
Mount Vernon Trail
This 18-mile trail is perfect for an extended ride, especially due to the fact that it provides breathtaking views of DC. The stretch across the Arlington Memorial Bridge is particularly scenic. We highly recommend a stop at Gravelly Point, too; you’ll be able to watch planes take off and land at Reagan National Airport.
Metropolitan Branch Trail
Known as “MBT” to locals, this 8-mile trail is known for its eye-catching wall paintings that run parallel(平行的) to you as you ride, especially in NoMa. Additional sites to check out include The Dew Drop Inn, which is housed in a rural building that used to be a workspace for metalworkers. If your bike is in need of a tune-up, head to Gearin’ Up Bicycles, which also teaches essential skills to city youth.
Capital Crescent Trail
One of the most trafficked trails in the nation, the 11-mile Capital Crescent Trail is a major commuter(通勤者) route. Potomac River views are plentiful; we highly suggest a few stops for photo-taking. Georgetown Waterfront Park is another option for a stop; you can enjoy views of the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts and the Francis Scott Key Memorial Bridge.
