About the Event
$5. Long hike: 9½ mi., 1000 ft. ascent. Moderate hike: 7½ mi., 500 ft. ascent.
From Tenleytown, we’ll head south through deeply wooded Glover-Archbold and Palisades Parks up to the C&O Canal Towpath. The moderate hike continues along the towpath towards town and ends at the Rosslyn Metro station. Long hikers backtrack to the Whitehaven Parkway (a woodsy trail, not a highway) and continue along that trail to end at Woodley Park Metro.
