Sligo Creek Trail and local parks offer outdoor opportunities
While it might not be obvious at first glance, Lewisdale is something of a paradise for runners, walkers and cyclists. “A lot of people don’t realize how many trails there are in the area,” says Chrissomallis. “They’re great for exercise, and a lot of bikers are actually using them to get to work these days.” The Sligo Creek Trail, for example, is over 10 miles long and runs through a number of parks in and around the neighborhood, while also connecting to an ever-expanding network of bike trails that extend throughout the DMV area.
There are a number of quality local parks in the area as well. Sitting beside a local forest, Lewisdale Neighborhood Park’s playground is the perfect spot for a shady play date, while University Hills Duck Pond Park is a favorite with local birders and wildlife watchers.
