About Event

Hike 3.9-mile loop at Turkey Run Park. Kids will love this one, too, thanks to rock scrambles, water crossings, and massive boulders!

This hike begins with a descent of 170 feet, down at least 100 steps. From here, savor epic views across the Potomac River before hop-scotching over Turkey Run. Yellow blazes lead visitors to cross a ravine on a three-inch-wide wooden board, scramble alongside Dead Run, and take in waterfalls before the end of this hike.

No restrooms and water available in the parking area.
