Great Falls Park, located on both sides of the Potomac River, offers stunning river views. Rushing whitewater pours through steep, jagged crevices into a narrow gorge. Photographers, hikers, and nature lovers find much to enjoy here. The park offers trails and the towpath of the Chesapeake & Ohio Canal parallels the river. Fishing is allowed, but only with a valid permit.

The Maryland side also features Great Falls Tavern with displays of canal history. One-hour roundtrip barge excursions are offered on a restored stretch of the canal from April to November.
