Rt. 619 is just one reason Prince William, Virginia is DC’s Countryside. Just miles outside of Washington D.C., visitors can take a back road off the beaten path where they can enjoy tree-lined country roads, unique attractions and great local food.

 

 

Just a few of the unforgettable historic attractions along this winding road are Prince William Forest National Park - the largest green space in Northern Virginia and home to several rustic cabins once used during WWI & II as part of a spy training camp, Quantico National Cemetery – visitors can pay homage to those who served with a stop by this memorial cemetery, Brentsville Courthouse Historic Centre – once the Prince William County seat, this historic property gives visitors a glimpse into the American Civil War and the ghosts that have been claimed to still haunt it.
