Did you know Banshee Reeks translates from Gaelic to “spirit” and “hills and dales”? Families with kids ages 5 and up can learn how Loudoun’s only nature preserve got its haunted name on an easy 1-2 mile dusk hike on October 29, 2026. Listen for shrieking foxes and screeching barn owls as darkness falls, then stay for a spooky campfire, weather permitting.
