All Trip Moments about Great Falls
DC/Riverbend Park
Location: On the Potomac River at the junction of Virginia and Maryland.
Transportation: It takes about 19 kilometers to take Metro/Bus, so it is recommended to drive there. (Because it is a state national park, you need to pay for car entry.)
There are many trails to walk inside. After walking for a while, you can see the Olmsted Island Overlook, which is the landscape where the film was shot. Because it rained the day before yesterday, the color of the sea water will be the color of sand.
It is recommended for people who like hiking and nature to take a walk here.

USA dc tour great falls park
#rentacar
I went to visit the suburbs of Washington, USA. It was not convenient to take a car, so I rented a car. I originally wanted to rent a medium-sized SUV. I found out that it is larger than the left frame, but it is ok. It is also good for shopping. The price is 80 US dollars a day. I mainly go to the great place on the left. Visit Falls Park, the scenery is super beautiful, you can see the beautiful natural scenery, you can drive there in about half an hour, it is highly recommended.

Beautiful waterfall not far from DC 💦
Great Falls Park is located not far from Washington, D.C. There is parking available and pets are allowed on leashes. The walking paths are lined with trees, shady, and not steep. It takes you to see the beautiful waterfalls and large rapids of the Potomac River. It is very beautiful.
Swimming is not allowed here because the water is very strong and fast. There are tables and barbecue grills available, perfect for a picnic on a holiday.
🕰️Opening hours: Open every day except Christmas Day from 7:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m.

#JuneTravelSupportEvent
Grape Falls in McLean, Virginia!
And the long Potomac River hiking trail on both sides of the falls!
If you start at Riverland, you can hike to Great Falls without an entrance fee.
You can also see a dam that looks like a direct waterfall on the way!

Go see the cool waterfalls in the US! Great Falls Park
#SummerTravel
There are many national parks in the eastern United States that have as beautiful scenery as the western United States,
but I don't think there is anything like the eastern United States for summer travel!
There is a place in Virginia in the eastern United States where you can blow away the heavy summer with the cool sound of waterfalls!
You can see a beautiful waterfall view without having to walk a lot after parking,
and among the many view spots where you can see the waterfall,
there are places that are easy to get to in a wheelchair (see the third picture).
Great Falls Park is a good place to see cool waterfalls without sweating and walking.👍
📍Great Falls Park,
9200 Old Dominion Dr, McLean, VA 22102
💵 Entrance fee: $20 per car, National Park Annual Pass available
❗️Tip: Riverbend Park (no entrance fee) has a well-made trekking course! 40-60 minutes one way from Riverbend to Great Falls
