| Are there any long stretches of paths that are not too hilly without roads to cross? Would love to find a fun safe place to rollerblade with the family. Thanks! |

| Is Rock Creek Park too hilly? |

| Hains Point. |

For Hains point you would need to be on the road. The sidewalks are terrible. Cars are supposed to go slow but they don’t always, so I wouldn’t recommend for kids. |

Eek. Mount Vernon is quite multiuse with lots of bikers treating it like it's a speedway. Second Hains Point and higher up on the canal trail. |

| CO trail starting in Leesburg to Purcellville. It’s quiet and end of trail so less Le Mans. |

Was going to ask. What about quads? I can plow stop but otherwise not gifted at slowing down. |

I concur that Mt Vernon trail is not ideal. There are so many bikers--both fast ones who blow past and casual tourists on those awful rental bikes who don't know the rules of riding on a trail. It's too narrow if you want to rollerblade side by side with kids. Haines point is way better for that! And it is flatter! |
