✅ Save this post and visit Great Falls, Virginia soon🏞️ 📍9200 Old Dominion Dr, McLean, VA 22102 I visited this beautiful spot last year and instantly fell in love. The views are absolutely stunning—waterfalls, dramatic cliffs, and peaceful trails make it a perfect escape from the city. It’s just 30 minutes from D.C., making it an ideal spot for a quick nature getaway. Whether you’re planning a relaxing solo trip, a family day out, or a picnic date—Great Falls has it all. 🍃 What you need to know: 🎟️$20 per vehicle / $10 per person on foot or bike 🧺 Picnic tables available—pack a lunch. 🚻 Restrooms on-site 🚶🏻‍♀️‍➡️ Easy-to-moderate trails with scenic overlooks 📌Great for families, couples & solo explorers 🚯 I did notice some trash near the falls. Please help keep this place beautiful—use the trash bins and leave no trace 💚 🙌Tag a friend you’d bring here and start planning your next day trip. #GreatFallsVA #VirginiaHikes #daytripideas #familygetaway #WaterfallViews #ExploreVirginia #dmvtravel
