Description

The wealth of trails in Fairfax County really becomes apparent when you start exploring the paths around South Run District Park and Burke Lake. South Run District Park is a little over a mile south of Burke Lake.

By starting from South Run District Park, you'll escape an entrance fee for out of county residents who go to Burke Lake Park, but not likely escape the large numbers of people who come to both parks. Also nearby are many other lakes with trails around them. Lake Mercer can be accessed via the South Run Stream Valley Trail and is south of the park.

Lots of walkers. No obstacles. Very well maintained trail. Not for the adventurous MTBikers but nice ride to just get out and tide. 12.6mi — 1h 48m
