Nice place to explore, great for kids

This is a large park for the DC area. The official size is 100 acres but it is actually much larger as it borders undeveloped public lands from the GW parkway. There is a nice nature center with snakes, a see-into glass active bee hive, some birds of prey, and some history of the potomac basin. The park offers the opportunity to walk through a hardwood forest on trails that are not too crowded.
