Laurel Hill Description
Once the site of the Lorton Prison, Fairfax County has been transforming this piece of property into a recreational use area.
There are several planned projects including an Equestrian Center and sports complex.
A golf club and a disk golf course already exist on the property.
MORE has built about 10 miles of singletrack trails at Laurel Hill. The Giles Run Meadow Trail is a 1.7 mile twisty loop through a beautiful
wooded section of Laurel Hill. South of Furnace and Lorton Roads are an additional 7 1/2 miles of mostly smooth, fast singletrack trails that wind through
picturesque fields. The Slaughterhouse loop is a more technical ride that has multiple logs and rock gardens, combined with steep uphill climbs and
tight turns. Also located in this section is a small skills area with a pump track, skinny, and rock garden.
The Fairfax Cross Country Trail passes through the park and ends a couple of miles south at Occoquan Regional Park.
