A Hike in the Woods: Northern Virginia

One of our favorite hikes

Hiking in Norther Virginia

At Vic's Tree Service we don't just take care of trees because it's our business, we appreciate the beauty of trees in the wild. We enjoy a great hike through a beautiful, and if we are lucky, magnificent forest. I find a lot of great hikes on this site, although I don't think this one is in there. The picture above is from one of our favorite hiking spots in Northern Virginia. I won't give away the location, but the photos may make you wonder where so close in town could a forest so old and beautiful still exist.

This almost looks like it should be in the ocean and not on a tree. Beautiful to look at, but signals decay.

The blue bells return every spring and bring an amazing burst of color. If you are wondering, the hiking trails have various levels of difficulty. There is almost something for everyone. There is one unavoidable hill climb on the way out, so be prepared. It is definitely worth the work. 

It looks like fairy dust. All of the seasons are different and amazing, but spring is almost magical. In the winter there is complete visibility along the hiking trails. In the summer, the trails close in, and the hike has a completely different feel.

     Unfortunately, the photos don't do the trees in this forest justice. They can't show enough perspective to get a real

     feel for the trees.  I guess you'll have to go visit to see for yourself. Email to find out the location.
