The Capital Crescent Trail (CCT) is a shared use off-road trail from Georgetown, D.C. to Silver Spring, MD suitable for walkers, joggers, bikers, and rollerbladers. The Coalition for the Capital Crescent Trail, an all-volunteer organization, has spearheaded efforts since 1986 to develop this first-class shared use trail.

Our PROFILE page presents a more complete description of the Trail and its rich history. Use our ACCESS page to find directions to the Trail and services available along the Trail.

A recent Survey shows that the Trail is one of the most heavily used trails in the nation. But much remains to be done to complete this wonderful trail and to make it a delight for all. The Trail will not be finished until it is completed as a paved off-road trail into downtown Silver Spring. The Coalition continues to work to complete the Trail and to provide features to make the Trail more attractive and fun to use.
