11 MILES  -  PAVED / CRUSHED STONE     The Capital Crescent Trail is a rail-to-trail bike path that runs between Georgetown and Bethesda. It is very popular with cyclists and rollerbladers, and it is used by bike commuters. The lower 7 miles are paved until you reach downtown Bethesda, the following 3 miles is crushed stone. The stretch from Georgetown to Bethesda has a slightly graded uphill, and riding the other direction has a slightly downhill grade. Located a couple miles outside Georgetown on Canal Road, Fletcher's Boat House is situated between the bike path and the Potomac River. Fletchers has a very large free parking lot, and they rent boat and bikes.
