Description:

Hemlock Overlook, located along the banks of the historic Bull Run, feels surprisingly remote for being so close to Washington D.C. Sightings of deer, beaver, turkey, osprey, and great blue heron are not uncommon in this 425-acre park. This beautiful racecourse consists mostly of hiking trails (including the Bull Run Occoquan Trail), old dirt roads, and open fields. Competitors will run over rocks and roots and along the bull run. The course is designed to be spectator friendly with several areas designated for family and friends to cheer on their racers.
