Tripadvisors tilnærming til anmeldelser
Hver Tripadvisor-anmeldelse går gjennom et automatisert sporingssystem før den legges ut. Dette systemet samler inn informasjon som svarer på følgende spørsmål: Hvordan, hva, hvor og når. Hvis systemet oppdager noe som muligens strider imot retningslinjene våre for fellesskapet, blir anmeldelsen ikke publisert.
Når systemet oppdager et problem, kan en anmeldelse automatisk avvises, sendes til anmelderen for bekreftelse eller gjennomgås manuelt av teamet vårt av innholdsspesialister. Disse spesialistene jobber døgnet rundt for å opprettholde kvaliteten av anmeldelsene på nettstedet vårt.
Teamet vårt sjekker hver anmeldelse som er lagt ut på nettstedet og bestrides av fellesskapet vårt for ikke å møte retningslinjene våre for fellesskapet.

This is very small by national park standards, but surprisingly large relative to other natural spaces in/near major urban centers. The rock cliffs underlying the Potomac River make for surprisingly rugged falls. There's not much in the way of real trails, but the old carriage road (closed to vehicles) does make for a nice walk. Go off peak or early in the day to beat crowds.

This park is beautiful to get out, explore and get a good walk in. There are three observation areas, all three give you great views of the falls. There is a $20 admission fee per vehicle. The visitor center is currently closed for hvac repairs. The snack bar is still open. There is a picnic area by the lower parking lot. Very clean park.

I've been to hundreds of National Parks over many years, but we had not yet made time to visit since we moved into Virginia. It is certainly worth a visit, especially if you like hiking that is easy to get to in the DC area. It is a relatively small place to, many told me that weekends can have hours to wait for a place to park. We were visiting on a Thursday in September and had no problem driving over in the morning. This is a spectacular river in a relatively small area. It is worth a trip, but the Visitors Center is not available now as they are doing some repair work.

An excellent escape from the DMV craziness. On nice days, traffic can be suffocating and come to a standstill; get there early (before 7 am) or go late (after 4 pm). Easliy take a 40 minute hike to Riverbend Park (easy) and visit the Nature Center and even rent canoes (or kayaks).

A very accessible waterfalls with short hikes and multiple vista points on the George Washington Highway. A must-stop on the GWH drive, the visitors center is closed for renovations but a grab-and-go, restrooms are available next to parking.

I love visiting these waterfalls after work! Each of the overlooks are amazing, though the third is my favorite. Also, the entrance fee is $20 a vehicle, but I am able to come in for free with my national parks access pass.

Great Falls is a beautiful park not too far from DC. It is a picturesque walk along the Potomac where you can see various waterfalls. On a hot day it is perfect for hiking because a good portion of the trails are in the shade. I hiked here with my friend for about five hours. My only issue is it is 20 dollars to get in and you get a six-day pass. My issue with that is that's great if you have time to be there for days. I wish they had a pass just for one day for a cheaper price. Nevertheless, this is absolutely worth seeing. It was not disappointing, and my only complaint is small and doesn't ruin the experience. Get there early because it gets crowded

Majestic! We planned to spend a half day here but really spent the whole day. So many areas to walk and just enjoy nature. We saw so much wildlife and the views are amazing. Nature center was closed and they are not kidding when they say minimal cell service so if using Uber schedule pickup and set pickup location prior to going.

How long do you need to visit the CO NHP at the Great Falls location with plans to do Billy Goat trail A and maybe C?
Is Food still available?
Are you able to see the Falls from the car?

Hi Kirchner3, you can spend a good 3+ hours visiting the park on the Maryland side and doing a part of the Billy Goat Trail. I like to take snacks, do stops to enjoy the view, and so if you are strictly "hiking" it you could do a good hike in less than 3 hours. It's a beautiful park so I would give myself at least 2 hours.
Is there a car parking and entry fee? And how many miles do you have to walk in order to reach at the falls

Yes, there is a National Parks fee, plenty of parking, and a fairly short walk to the falls.

Why is it labeled as a National Park if it’s not actually an official National Park? I couldn’t find this information anywhere?

Chantilly, VA1 226 bidrag
It’s part of the National Park Service so, in that sense, it is a “national park” and NPS passes and discounts apply there. But the NPS refers to it online only as “Great Falls Park,” probably because of its small size.

Hi, how long did it take you to do the 3 overlooks?
Nancy A
Fairfax, VA1 bidrag
The overlooks are fairly close to each other. I'd say in a stroll, a little over an hour or so. Well worth the time. I'm of the older generation, so a stroll is what I have. Enjoy.

What trails did you do? we would like to hit the ones near the falls, walk on rocks, etc?
Brandon Gerding
Lima, OH964 bidrag
Walk out from visitor center and all the trails we did took us along the rocks and water. The best spot we went was very treacherous with steep decline so if you take that one be real careful but is well worth it. The trails aren't marked like an usual park where you got this one and that one just start hiking out visitor center like I said and you will definitely hit everything you want to see.

There is not a playground. But kids would enjoy the visitor center exhibits and the hiking trails. There are many trails that a 4-year-old could do. There is also a large picnic area where you could picnic or barbeque. We saw many people playing yard games. Our 6 year old enjoyed the park.
