Quick Facts

Historical/Interpretive Information/Exhibits, Trailhead

The Laurel Trail Loop is a moderately strenuous 1.3-mile loop that winds through deciduous forest to South Fork Quantico Creek. Colors pop all year along this trail. In the spring, mountain laurel burst into bloom with clusters of delicate pink and white. In autumn, the green leaves of summer turn into endless shades of yellow, orange, red, and tan.  

 

Watch your step for tree stumps and slippery rocks. Check yourself periodically for ticks. Keep your pets on a leash and do not feed wildlife. Do not disturb or remove any plants, animals, or historic features.
