Confirmed from Fallsgrove Stream Valley Park's own listing, the park or land manager's website, and runner reviews. Blank cells mean we could not verify that fact — we would rather say "not reported" than invent one. There is no Easy / Moderate / Hard rating on this page on purpose: a one-word difficulty score tells you nothing about whether a trail suits your run. Surface, distance, shade and hours do.
This 50-acre park featuring a stream, trees & plants offers a nature trail.

Looking for a place that feels secluded from residences or other obvious signs of civilization while walking on a paved path through the woods? Fallsgrove is a good place to check out for that. Want to also feel secluded while sitting at a picnic table or bench? Then this isn’t quite it.
Excellent park with many options for families such as playgrounds and trails that go for miles. This has been a great place for me to go on routine walks covered with nature and the suburb environment in Rockville.
Small but very nice. It has a fountain for dogs as well as people. Tennis courts and some nice walks. It intersects a hiking trail, too. Also there is a community garden and a community center.
