Welcome to the 40th Anniversary of the Head of the Occoquan Regatta! The Head of the Occoquan is the final head race of the fall season at Sandy Run, sponsored by the Occoquan Boat Club. Races start 4k upstream from the launch area and you need to navigate several challenging turns and plan your moves strategically.

Conquer challenges and build confidence.

Climb UPton—the largest ropes course in the Mid-Atlantic—is open during the fall season! With 90 different elements and three levels of difficulty, there’s adventure for everyone. Visit climbupton.com for fall hours.
