Probably closer to 1.5 hours from DC/NOVA but hike Mary's Rock and then head to Washington, VA and eat at Patty O's - check out the Inn at Little Washington and walk the grounds if you have not been there. Good day trip but doesn't take all day but you need to head out on the early side.

Depends on where in DMV you are if you can get there in an hour, but we like sections of the Appalachian Trail near Purcerville and then there are at least a few good restaurants in town, including Magnolia's.

Sligo Creek Trail and La Casita or Zinnia

Rock Creek Park/Meadowbrook and Parkway Deli or Daily Dish

You could do Soapstone Valley into Rock Creek Park, Melvin Hazen back out, and then eat at Sababa or somewhere nearby.

One I haven't tried is Little Falls and Gregorio's Trattoria but it looks like it would work well.


Great suggestions!

Went online to type this (though if you are not that fit and/ or it is hot, don’t do the whole towpath, just walk on the C& O canal. That has nice views and less scrambling over boulders). You can walk right to the restaurant!

Restaurant is mediocre and the parking near the trail can get pretty full. But at least it's closeby.

I'd say go up to Seneca Creek State Park near Germantown, but you'd need to bring a picnic lunch then.

Title says it all, I think.

We would love to go on a day hike within an hour drive of DC to follow it up with a great (although not too formal as we'll be in hiking clothes) meal. Any recommendations?

TIA!
