This is a paved path and it is right by the VRE tracks. It was kind of a boring walk with not much to see but overgrown bushes. It rained on us and in the woodsy part we did not get too wet but out of the trees we were drenched.That was not an issue, it just was not as exciting of a walk or hike. Very level terrain.

I love this ️ trail for biking its a smoother trail and longer than other parks... Biking is wonderful here plus kids stroller works good there its not bumpy at all. Its not too shady though if its too sunny! No playing park

Nice walk next to the creek and railroads. Kids really have fun crossing the creek on the concrete steps.

Great place to spend the day or just a couple hours with family or your partner. Make sure that if you want to spend more than 30 minutes here to bring some food. You will constantly see other people eating which will definitely cause you to become hungry.

Paved most of the way, train tracks running along a portion of the path.. good for those who want a clearly defined walking space.. can see far ahead.. trails break off and take you to apartment complexes.. nice healthy alternative to the VRE.. love the stepping stones and due to all the rain activity the creek is bubbling with excitement.. the birds are in full song and the frogs are adding their chorus as well... partial shade and partial uncovered areas.. take sunscreen, water and bug spray..great for a easy leisurely stroll through nature.. surprised by all the nature being so close to roads and apartment complexes.. not my first choice but a great alternative for a quick bike ride, a run or an evening stroll..

Great long walk or short bike ride along the power lines, a stream, and train tracks. Easy access points and several neighbourhoods close by. The operator of the VRE/freight rail might blow his horn and wave. There is a lovely bunch of cylindrical stepping posts to cross a small offshoot of the stream. Marvellous for the whole family!

This is a really nice, paved walking/biking path which runs between a small shopping center and the Burke VRE. There is one spot where you either have to walk/ride through a very shallow creek or you can step over on raised stepping stones. This path runs along the railroad tracks, but at a safe distance, which is cool for kids. There is a good portion that is unshaded.

I enjoyed the dancing bees and flowers that popped up along this trail. Its near a train track with electric poles that line a portion of it. The path with water was a pleasant discovery that brought out the kid in me as I hopped across. I love Earth and her endless beauty.
