Seneca Creek State Park
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Seneca Creek State Park encompasses 6,300 acres (25 km²) in western Montgomery County, Maryland near Germantown. Seneca Creek runs through the park for nearly 15 miles (24 km) before emptying into the Potomac River. The park contains many miles of trails including the Seneca Creek Greenway Trail which traverses the entire length of Seneca Creek, a 16.5 mile (27 km) hike. Hunting is also available in an area along River Road.
The developed portion of the park centers on 90-acre Clopper Lake and is a very popular recreational area for picnicking, fishing, and boating. Since 1995, the annual Winter Lights Festival has featured a drive-through holiday light show from November through early January, in the developed portion of the park.
