Little Falls Branch Stream Valley Park Trail
Description
The 3.5-mile Little Falls hiker-biker paved trail is largely shaded and offers unobstructed views of Little Falls.
The trail parallels the Capital Crescent Trail (CCT) starting at Mile 6 of the CCT and for about a mile shares the same right of way. The trail passes the former site of the Milton/Loughborough Mill, built in the early 1800s and used to grind flour for the Georgetown wheat trade.
Note: Between Dorset and Massachusetts Avenues the trail uses Little Falls Parkway to connect the upper and lower portions of the trail.
