Fairland Recreational Park Trails
Fairland Recreational Park offers 1.5 miles of hard surface trail that loops around the many amenities offered as well as a trail that leads into its Prince George’s County side. The park also offers 3.8 miles of winding natural surface trail that can be somewhat challenging for mountain bikers.
