Details

This 3.8mile easy hike has short, rolling hills. Pace: 3mph. The trek traverses Wolf Trap national park for the Performing Arts. After exploring the main concert area known as the Filene Center, the hike wanders through the colorful woodland before encircling Wolf Trap Farm pond. Latter of the circuit overlooks the Children's Theater-in-the-Woods, then parallels a scenic section of Wolf Trap creek, concluding with a gander through a Garden. Highlights include a mellow Marsh meander & a calamitous 'creek curve cliff'. A hair- raising hike!

Post- social BYO picnic lunch @ tables in parking lot. See uploaded photo.
