Gravelly Point Park

Highlight • Viewpoint

The approach to Reagan National Airport is not easy, following the Potomac River with a late, deep turn to land. At this point the planes fly close enough to touch. Anyone who has anything left for aviation should come here.

View of the Washington Monument from the 14th Street Bridge

Highlight • Viewpoint

Long bridge with a nice view of the mall. The bike and footpath (unfortunately it is a shared path) is quite narrow and busy. In addition, they are often downright clogged with many pedestrians so that you can only drive at walking pace. More difficult.

Navy and Marine Memorial

Highlight • Monument

Seafaring, romantic and transfigured, will always remain dangerous. Let's remember all seafarers who lost their lives at work or while rescuing others.

Lincoln Memorial

Highlight • Monument

The Lincoln was built to honor Abraham Lincoln. He was the 16th president, assassinated on April 14, 1865 as the civil war was concluding. Martin Luther King Jr. gave his famous "I Have a Dream" speech here on August 28, 1963.

Lincoln Memorial and Reflecting Pool

Highlight • Monument

The Lincoln Memorial and adjoining reflecting pool are another must-see when visiting Washington. Of course, the mall is perfect for a run and early in the morning you have "Abe" all to yourself. After all, an advantage of the jet lag - getting up early in the first days is very easy!

View of the Georgetown Waterfront

Highlight • Viewpoint

The cycle path leading here offers magnificent views of the city at any time of the day or night almost along its entire length.

Francis Scott Key Bridge

Highlight • Bridge

This is a paved path across the bridge with metal railings separating pedestrians/cyclists from vehicular traffic. It feels safe but it can be a little loud. The views are beautiful.

View of the Washington Monument from Lady Bird Johnson Park

Highlight (Segment) • Viewpoint

A well-developed, but also frequented bike path with a magnificent panorama of the mall. From the Lincoln Memorial to the Obelisk to the Jefferson Memorial, everything is obvious.
