Bearfence Viewpoint Trailhead

Hiking area

👍👍 ⚠️ this trail is for experienced hikers. Proper shoes, lightweight backpacks and good hydration are needed for this hike. It's a strenuous trail. Though it may be short it's a huge rock scramble. You have to watch your footing and be very cautious of loose rocks. If you have all of these things then...

Pole Steeple Vista

Hiking area

👍👍 I hiked up from the Pole Steeple parking lot. Not exactly sure in distance but it didn’t take me more than an hour and a half round trip. There is an option at one point to take the steep climb or the moderate climb. I did moderate and it wasn’t bad at all. Leaves can be tricky in the fall/winter be...

Hartshorne Woods Park, Buttermilk Valley Entrance

👍👍 This is definitely my favorite of all the Monmouth County parks. Multiple entrances to the park with a variety of great trails going through the heavily wooded area. Good for walks, mountain bikes and dog friendly. If you want a nice long hike I recommend starting at the Buttermilk Valley entrance a...

Hawksbill Loop Trailhead

Hiking area

👍👍 Great hike. It is a fairly short distance to the summit, but it is a very steep and relentless climb. So you need to be prepared for a workout. The view once at the top is fantastic. Bring a picnic and enjoy it for a while, plenty of space to relax and enjoy the view from the rocks along the peak.

4.90 (99 reviews) (~189.35 km from centre)

Whiteoak Canyon Falls Lower Trailhead

Hiking area

👍👍 Hiked up 3 miles from the trailhead which is a little over halfway to skyline drive. Traffic was light on the trail being a Tuesday. Total elevation gain was right at 1700 ft so it was a good workout. Overall trail is in good shape. There are several areas which were muddy but otherwise that was it.

4.90 (98 reviews) (~187.32 km from centre)

Catfish Fire Tower

Hiking area

👍👍 Nice little hike with a wide path and just enough elevation gain to make you work for it. Lovely sunset views at the fire tower.

4.90 (90 reviews) (~227.63 km from centre)

D&L Trail Black Diamond Trailhead

Hiking area

👍👍 Beautiful, scenic views. Well kept trail that is great for biking or walking. Important to note: this entrance the grade is a slight decline from its beginning. So keep that in mind that if and when you turn around to go back to the lot, it will be slightly uphill the whole way back.

4.90 (88 reviews) (~205 km from centre)

W&OD Trailhead Leesburg

Hiking area

👍👍 Arguably the best cycling, running, walking trail in the national capital region. Built on the route of the now removed Washington and Old Dominion rail line, this trail is paved, well maintained, very long, and offers beautiful views and rolling hills, the latter of which makes for a more challengi...
