Springfield Lakes

We all know walking and hiking are both popular and effective forms of cardio exercise. However, it's more enjoyable if you can do the exercise in pleasant, outdoor surroundings.

If you live in Springfield, Virginia there are two venues where those conditions come together

Burke Lake Park has a 4.7 mile hiking trail around a 218 acre lake. The American Hiking Society rates the trail among the top 10 in the US
Lake Accotink Park has a 3.75 mile trail in the 493 acre park that also has a 55 acre lake.

Of course, you'll probably want a comfortable Springfield home where you can relax after your exercise.

COMMUTING

EXPRESS BUS SERVICE to the PENTAGON and WASHINGTON, DC is available at the Festival Shopping at Old Bridge shopping center in Lake Ridge - less than 10 minutes
CARPOOLS usually meet at the VDOT Commuter Lot at the entrance to Lake Ridge - see OMNIMATCH for more specific details
SLUGGING (some erroneously call it hitching a ride which it is) is a result of the need to use HOV lanes on the I-95 as much as possible. Commuters form a line at a designated SLUG STOP in Lake Ridge - it is the VDOT Commuter at the Lake Ridge entrance. For example, a driver will pull up headed for the Pentagon, but needs one more passenger to qualify for HOV-3. The first person in line going to the Pentagon will join the others in the car and away they go. It's free commuting for the slugger and gives the driver availability to HOV lanes on I-95 - win win!!
RAILROAD The Virginia Railway Express WOODBRIDGE STATION with rail service to Springfield, Crystal City and Union Station in Washington, DC is approximately a 20 minute drive from The Glen in the morning rush hour. At Springfield you can switch to METRORAIL that gives you access to the entire National Capital Area subway system.
