ADMO Georgetown Campus Loop

Brisk-paced (2.5-3 mph) hike--7.1 mile loop starting from Pitango (1841 Columbia Rd NW) in Adam's Morgan. Heading to the Georgetown Campus, we will walk through Normanstone Parkway and around the National Observatory on the way to Whitehaven Trail. We will hike south through Glover Archbold Trail and walk through the beautiful Georgetown Campus. The hike will take us through Georgetown neighborhoods to Montrose Park eventually landing back in ADMO. There are several hills on this hike. Walking surface will be dirt and asphalt trails and sidewalks. Bring plenty of water and some snacks. Dress in layers, and be sure to wear sturdy, comfortable footwear. Well-behaved, leashed dogs welcome. Brunch in ADMO after the hike is an option.

This is a joint hike between the ADMO Hiking Club and the Sierra Club. All hikers will be required to sign the Sierra Club waiver form to participate. Sierra Club Potomac Region Outings (SCPRO) appreciates a voluntary $2 per person donation to support our many volunteer-led activities.

Dupont Circle is the closest Metro stop (.6 miles). Bus routes C51, C53, D70, D27 and D74 are all within a couple blocks of Pitango. There is metered and free street parking in the surrounding neighborhood. But please arrive early so you have enough time to find the parking.
