Virginia Scenic Rivers

Metadata Updated: January 31, 2025

The Virginia Scenic Rivers Program was enabled by the Virginia Scenic Rivers Act of 1970. Within Loudoun County are two Virginia-designated scenic rivers - Catoctin Creek from Waterford to the confluence of the Potomac, and Goose Creek from the confluence of the north and south prongs near Linden to the confluence of the Potomac. These creeks are represented in the Loudoun County GIS using the base map drainage data, which is collected via a planimetric update process from aerial photography and processed for a cartographic representation at 1:2400 Scale, and are mapped to National Map Accuracy Standards (NMAS). As the designation is to the main trunk of each stream, tributaries were removed and the centerlines were dissolved by name.Updated - 2016Additional Information:Scenic Rivers Act - Catoctin Creek State Scenic RiverScenic Rivers Act - Goose Creek State Scenic RiverIf you would like more information or would like to get involved please contact the following:Catoctin Creek Scenic River Advisory CommitteeGoose Creek Scenic River Advisory Committee
