Need to Know

Very winding and very popular—keep your eyes up and ears open for other trail users.

Description

This winding, paved trail follows Sligo Creek from Wheaton Regional Park in the north to the confluence of the Northwest Branch and Sligo in Hyattsville. In the afternoons and weekends, it is very popular with cyclists, hikers, and runners. Bike commuters, for the most part, stay on the more direct Sligo Creek Parkway.

The Sligo Creek Trail is part of the larger Anacostia Tributary Trail System and connects with the Northwest Branch Paved Trail , Northest Branch trail, the Rhode Island Ave Trolly Trail and the Anacostia River Trail (East Bank) which can make for a full day of riding.
