Four Mile Run is a creek that forms the border between Arlington and Alexandria in this area. The Four Mile Run Trail begins at the Mount Vernon Train near the Potomac River, and continues 7 mi up the river through Southwestern Arlington and Falls Church.
The Four Mile Run Trail is a 7-mile long, paved shared use path in Arlington County and Falls Church. It runs along Four Mile Run from Benjamin Banneker Park in Falls Church to the Mount Vernon Trail near Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport, where Four Mile Run empties into the Potomac River. The trail runs roughly parallel to parts of the Washington & Old Dominion Railroad Trail as it follows Four Mile Run, sometimes on the other side of the stream.
