Turkey Run Park - Turkey Run and Potomac Heritage Trail
Dogs are allowed on this trail however it may be difficult for them due to scrambles and creek crossing. Although relatively short, all of the challenging terrain earns this hike a hard rating.
Questions? Call 240-447-4796
Meeting point - https://maps.app.goo.gl/vkctq5vm9bjtfgTg6

3.1mi Length
360ft Elevation gain
Loop
Directions to this trailhead can be misleading. After exit 43, and once on GW parkway, take the first exit once you see Turkey Run Park sign.
This trail can get very washed out after significant rainfall and flooding. Dogs are allowed on this trail however it may be difficult for them due to scrambles and creek crossing. Although relatively short, all of the challenging terrain earns this hike a hard rating.
The trail starts in the C1 parking area and heads down to the Potomac River. The markers are yellow until you reach the river where you follow blue markers of the Potomac Heritage trail to the northwest along the river. You cross over Turkey Run and continue to Dead Run. Cross over Dead Run and go up stream, following the yellow markers again. Just after passing under the GW parkway bridge, turn left, cross the run and follow the yellow markers southeast until you reach Turkey Run again. Turn left and at the bridge cross over the run and follow the yellow trail up the hill and back to the parking lot. The section of trail on the south side of the GW parkway is not well maintained. Downloading the map ahead of time is helpful for navigating.

Run and Get Dirty! Adult Dogs in the main park, puppies in the small dog park
Our regular Sunday meetup at the Shirlington Dog Park -- members start arriving around 10:15 a.m. You'll always find an Aussie to play with. There are 3 entrances, so wander the park -- the dogs will find each other!
For puppies, Shirlington has a small dog park within the larger dog park. It's the prefect place for your puppy to gain confidence and socialize with others. There is also plenty of room to run.
Just a reminder, the Dog Park is under attack by the Arlington County Board of Commissioners. While early plans to decrease the size of the park by 50% has been tabled, it's important to remind Arlington County how important this park is to dogs and owners. Here are links to the change.org petition and the Facebook page where you can get updates.
