Woodrow Wilson Bridge Trail

3 mile paved trail that runs from the west end of the Woodrow Wilson Bridge in Alexandria, VA, to Oxon Hill in Maryland. The trail runs along the north side of the bridge before crossing over I-495, following around the northern edge of National Harbor before ending at the top of Oxon Hill.

The trail was opened in June of 2009 after years of lobbying for a bicycle-friendly route as part of the bridge. The trail features Potomac River Waterfront Park which sits over I-495 and provides information on the local bald eagle population.
