Fort Hunt Road (in yellow) runs from Rt. 1 to Fort Hunt Park.
Through its course Fort Hunt Road runs generally parallel to the George Washington Parkway in the East and Rt. 1 to West.
The defining geologic features of the area are the Potomac River, the floodplain and the inland hieghts. The Potomac River is most obvious on the map. Less obvious is the extent of the floodplain. The flood plain is generally narrow, extending not much further than the George Washington Parkway. Some of the best views in the area are found on the ridge which separates the floodplain from the uplands.
The north end of Fort Hunt Road is close to Old Town Alexandria and the Huntington Metro. The south end of Fort Hunt Road is close to Mount Vernon and Fort Belvoir.
