Sortie rapide à vélo de Brookmont à Washington

Hop on your bike in Brookmont, a scenic Maryland neighborhood that sits cozily along the Potomac River, just outside DC. This 19.7 km ride into the heart of Washington D.C. is a great blend of green escapes and urban energy. You’ll start off with some lovely riverside views, mostly cruising on dedicated cycleways—making for a chill and safe experience.

The route is mostly paved (over 90%), with long stretches of smooth asphalt, though you might roll over some paving stones and concrete here and there. Expect a few gentle climbs and descents as you leave Brookmont’s higher terrain, but nothing too daunting.

As you roll closer to the city, tree-lined quiet roads eventually give way to city buzz, and before you know it, you'll be gliding past the monuments and museums that make DC so iconic. It’s a great ride for taking in both nature and city sights—perfect for a relaxed morning or afternoon spin!
