DC Day Trips - Sky Meadows State Park
Join DC Day Trips for another adventure!
Where are we going this time?
🥾⛰️ Sky Meadows State Park: Just about an hour away frmo DC you'll find rolling hills, meadows, wildlife, and the Blue Ridge Mountains in the distance. We'll hike the Piedmont Overlook Loop as a group, taking in the panoramic view at the top. Beautiful, not brutal.
🏘️ Small Town VA: Lunch is in a charming small town perfect for wandering around. An opportunity to take in some local history or peruse the shops.
🍻 A surprise brewery: More views await as we enjoy a relaxing afternoon on picnic blankets overlooking the valley. With games and cold drinks (non-alcoholic available) to keep us occupied, we'll be here for 1-2 hours, depending on the vibe.
🌇 Then we head back to DC.

About Us
DC Day Trips is cultivating a community of Washingtonians who love the outdoors and want to spend less time planning and more time connecting with nature and friends.
We believe the outdoors should be more accessible to DC residents (no car? no problem). That's why we help plan ALL the logistics, including transportation.
This summer and fall, we are hosting trips to hike, explore, and gather in the incredible outdoor spaces the DMV has to offer. Destinations are just outside the beltway, only 1-3 hours away from DC.
