Gravelly Point Park

Highlight • Viewpoint

The approach to Reagan National Airport is not easy, following the Potomac River with a late, deep turn to land. At this point the planes fly close enough to touch. Anyone who has anything left for aviation should come here.

View of the Washington Monument from Lady Bird Johnson Park

Highlight (Segment) • Viewpoint

A well-developed, but also frequented bike path with a magnificent panorama of the mall. From the Lincoln Memorial to the Obelisk to the Jefferson Memorial, everything is obvious.

View of the Washington Monument from the 14th Street Bridge

Highlight • Viewpoint

Long bridge with a nice view of the mall. The bike and footpath (unfortunately it is a shared path) is quite narrow and busy. In addition, they are often downright clogged with many pedestrians so that you can only drive at walking pace. More difficult.
