Dirt Roads
Posted by: pchk01 ()

Hello, I'm new to Vienna, VA and I'm looking for dirt roads nearby here to photograph (and to get a small sample of) for a friend in North Carolina. He is working on an installation project where he is collecting dirt roads from all fifty states. His Facebook project is simply known as Dirt Road Project. I didn't realize until late into his endeavor that pedestrian and bike trails do not count. From casual googling I realize that many dirt roads in Vienna, McClean, and Virginia in general have been paved over. Any suggestions????

Does it have to be Vienna, or just anywhere in VA? Head out to the western part of the County, or to Loudoun. Plenty there.

No, it doesn't have to be. It could be anywhere in Virginia but the closer the better for me. Where in Loudoun???

Go out 66 west then 50 West. Once you go through a couple big traffic circles (i.e. past US-15), there's plenty of dirt roads off from there. Might take you 45 minutes each way.

Of course you can probably get something closer in the Clifton area, but I can't recall anything specific off the top of my head.
