Parkgoers can take guided tours of the grounds to see how these clashes unfolded. Poplar Ford Park has a large grass field, where locals come to fly drones and model aircraft, since the Fairfax County Park Authority approved safe use of unmanned aircraft on their lands back in 2018. At Bull Run Regional Park, guests can explore hiking trails, picnic, pitch a tent at the campgrounds or swim at Atlantis Waterpark.
