    One of the main features is a path that runs along the curve of the river. It’s perfect for strolling and is extremely popular for joggers and bicyclists connecting with the Capital Crescent Trail. Read more

    Pack a lunch, set up a picnic and watch the world go by. All year round, Georgetown's beautiful waterfront is a centre of neighbourhood entertainment so there's always something to watch.

    It's just nice to stop by for a bit whenever you're in Georgetown. Grab a food from Moby Dick or something sweet from Hershey's or Munchies, and enjoy it by the water.

    Take a romantic stroll at sunset or under the full moon. Don't forget to walk under the fountain – or play in it on a hot summer day.

    Fabulous place to take a walk right along the Potomac River. Jack's boathouse is up the way where you can rent canoes and kiyaks for $12.00 per person, per hour. Georgetown rocks!
