The sites are listed in the order I visited them. The driving was a bit circuitous because there are not many points to get from one side to the other of the walking and bike trail with a car.

Hunter’s Mill stop















Parked at 9811 Clark’s Crossing Road and walked to my right a short distance up the bike path to the marker below.




Oakton Church of the Brethren- 10025 Courthouse Road

















The church was built on top of a Confederate fort. The pictures were taken after walking down the stairs on the far end of the parking lot and show one of the walls of the fort.




The Star Fort- I parked in the American Legion parking lot- 38.9054167, -77.27075.









Salsbury Spring- 38.9034333, -77.2712333


The Freeman Store and Museum and Used Book Cellar at 131 Church Street NE, Vienna, VA. The Lydecker family from New Jersey purchased the property in 1859 and built a store and residence here. They fled Vienna at the start of the war. During the war, both sides occupied the Freeman’s store and residence. Union officers were quartered here and kept horses in the cellar. Confederates used the property as a hospital.
