One of the few places in the area where one can relatively easily access the river's edge for free.
Nice place for a walk. Follow the signs through the golf course
At first, after I parked, I had to get on the golf course path to get to the Riverfront Park. After a short walk, there is a sign on the right pointing to where the Riverfront Park is. You will need to walk down this gravel path to get there. I stayed on the golf course path. I didn't realize the trail started on the right between the golf course and the river. I continued to walk on the golf course section, and eventually crossed over onto the trail. The trail is very narrow, barely fits 2 average built persons, and if you have people coming from another direction, all of you will need to make adjustments to pass each other. It's narrow enough for 1 bike comfortably, but 2 side by side, it will take special skills. The view of the Potomac River was not as pretty as I was hoping. It is definitely not Great Falls. It is still nice to walk along. When I visited this after, it was windy, quiet and peaceful. The golf course was empty and I saw 3 people on bikes, 3 walking the trail, and a group of men going fishing with a dog off leash. I did also see someone playing fetch with a dog off leash. Just be careful if you or your dog has issues with dogs being off leash I do love the view of the golf course, clean and spacious.
