About this Event

We meet every Friday for a 45-60 minute walk (weather permitting!), alternating between Rock Creek Park and Tenleytown. Each walk has two leaders, one for moderate paced walkers and another for walkers who either prefer or need a slower pace. 

Registration is recommended, but optional.

This week: Rock Creek Park - meet at Parking Lot 6 (see below for directions and a map). We meet in the parking lot at the entrance to the lot at the other end from the bathrooms.

Walk Leaders: Sal Selvaggio

Inclement weather policy: NNV will make a decision to cancel a walk, in the event of predicted inclement weather. All registered walkers will be notified by email or you can check our events calendar for an updated status. For safety's sake - in summer, walks will be cancelled for:  temperature in excess of 90 degrees F, Heat Index or Real Feel in excess of 90 F, and/or air quality alerts - orange, red or purple.

Directions: To reach Parking Lot 6, take Military Road east past the Nature Center exit and St. John's College High School. Turn right on Ross Drive, the first exit after the Nature Center exit, and angle left down the hill toward the stop sign at Beach Drive. Turn left on Beach Drive and you’ll see a parking area on the left.
 
Do not follow Google Maps directions. They have lead people astray in the past. A better map is below.

NNV Full Members: If you would like to request a ride to get to the starting point of the walk, please mention that you need a ride when you register for the walk or call the office at (202) 935-6060 to request a ride at least three days in advance of the walk.
