You may want to check out Pohick Bay Regional Park. Not only is it a nice park, but on the "safe" side of the beltway. Virginia. There are 2 subway stations within an easy 20-30 minute drive from the park. Don't worry - the subways are clean and safe.
Another suggestion. If you haven't been in DC before - get tickets for the Red Bus. They will take you all over DC and you can get on/off when you want. It shouldn't be too cold to ride the open upper deck in October. If it is - you can always ride inside the bus.
