SUMMARY

Claude Moore Park is a 357-acre natural park located in Sterling, Virginia. It is a popular destination for outdoor enthusiasts due to its various recreational activities, including hiking, biking, fishing, and picnicking.

One of the main attractions of the park is the 18th-century Claude Moore farm, which is a living history site that offers visitors a glimpse into the daily life of a farming family during the colonial era. The farm features a farmhouse, a tobacco barn, a kitchen garden, and various farm animals, including cows, pigs, and chickens.

Another highlight of the park is the nature center, which has interactive exhibits that teach visitors about the local flora and fauna. The nature center also has a butterfly garden, bird-watching stations, and a pond with turtles and fish.

Other points of interest in the park include a fishing pond, a playground, and several miles of hiking and biking trails that wind through the forested areas of the park.

Interesting facts about the park include that it was the site of a former Nike missile site during the Cold War and that it was originally owned and operated by the Moore family, who were influential in the development of the Sterling area.

The best time of year to visit Claude Moore Park is during the spring and fall when the weather is mild, and the foliage is at its peak. However, the park is open year-round, and each season offers its unique activities and sights.
