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.

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!

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

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

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.

I bike Hains Point a lot on weekends. It will be fine.

Hains Point.

Is Rock Creek Park too hilly?

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!
