Driving Directions, MapQuest Link, Site Plan and Vienna Weather

Before you choose which road to use to enter the property when you come to OLGC, you might want to click on our SITE PLAN ABOVE to enlarge it, find the building you are planning to visit and then choose the appropriate entrance. To print the image after enlarging, be sure to change your printer to landscape. This will then print the entire site map
Vienna Weather You can use the the driving directions below or use this link to Mapquest. Please note that Notre Dame Drive listed on Mapquest or Google Maps as connecting Niblick Drive & Wolftrap has no signage and only a small vestige of it still remains. Whichever directions you use, click the site map at the top of this page for building locations.

1) From the Capital Beltway take exit number 46a, Route 123 South, Tysons Corner. Traveling south on Route 123 after you have passed your fourth light, Courthouse Road, you will travel approximately .8 of a mile before seeing the Emmaus Church of Christ on your right. Make the next left onto Niblick Drive. You may either a) follow Niblick Drive until the street ends at the entrance to Our Lady of Good Counsel Church property or b) make an immediate left onto Wolftrap Rd. At the crest of the hill make a right onto the parish property.

2) Traveling North on Route 123 (Maple Avenue) through the Town of Vienna from Fairfax or Oakton, you will come to a traffic light with Follin Lane on your right and the entrance to the Westwood Country Club on your left. Continue for 2 blocks and make a right onto Niblick Drive. You may either a) follow Niblick Drive until the street ends at the entrance to Our Lady of Good Counsel Church property or b) make an immediate left onto Wolftrap Rd. At the crest of the hill make a right onto the parish property.

If you click on the Pre-Construction Aerial View of April 7, 2002 you will see a view with a different orientation than the site plan above. Niblick Drive entrance to OLGC (bottom left) is from the SouthWest with the Church and Administration Building on your left. The Wolftrap Road entrance (top left) is coming from the NorthWest. Notre Dame drive (top right)is where the red tack shows.
