Fountainhead Regional Park

Fountainhead Regional Park

Fountainhead Regional Park is a park bordering a tributary of the Potomac River. The Park contains rolling hills, dense forests, and a tributary that flows into the Potomac River. It has a mountain biking trail, preserved 18th century cemetery, walking trail, and a fishing lake. Houses in Fairfax Station and Clifton, Virginia border this park. Most of the park is closed during the winter.

The park's unique feature is the 8 mile mountain biking trail [ [http://www.more-mtb.org/galleries/gal_imgs/1/0/4/4/fountainheadmay272003.gifMap of Mountain Bike Trail] ] [ [http://www.more-mtb.org/galleries/misc.php?do=downloadfile&i=837 Map of Mountain Bike Trail] (registration required)] built specifically by and for mountain bikers.

The park is administered by the Northern Virginia Regional Park Authority.
