Join the Washington D.C. Alumni Chapter for a spring hike through Great Falls National Park, followed by a picnic.

Great Falls is a beautiful 800-acre park located only 15 miles from Washington, DC.
The only cost associated with this event is a $3 per car parking fee.
Meet up with the group at the Great Falls Visitor Center, closest to the main parking lot, at 10am. The hike will be along the River Trail, which is 3 miles long and offers spectacular views of the Mather Gorge. The hike will last approximately 2 hours. We plan to enjoy a light picnic after the hike.
