W&OD Trail — Leesburg section

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

Completely paved and totaling right around 45 miles, the Washington & Old Dominion Trail is a super popular option for paved bike riding around the area. You can use the trail to make different loops or just do out and backs. Some sections (like this one) spend a good bit of time near cars and city streets, while other sections are through fields and countryside.
