The Sugarland Run Valley Stream Trail is part of the Fairfax County, Virginia countywide trail system. The main portion of the asphalt trail runs approximately 3 miles, although a newer section of trail, which connects to the Washington & Old Dominion Trail, extends the length of the main trail to approximately 4 miles. There are also many tributaries of this trail, several of which terminate in neighborhoods in the Town of Herndon, VA.
The trail passes by several basketball courts, and is a very popular trail for jogging and dog-walking. During very rainy periods, many (if not all) of the "fair weather crossings" may become impassible. These crossings mostly consist of flat, cylindrical concrete columns forming a step-way across the stream. During less rainy periods, stream crossings tend to not be very deep, and most dogs can usually traverse the crossing without completely submerging.
