    Annapolis Rock is perched atop South Mountain in Maryland. There are plenty of smaller rocks to sit down and enjoy the breathtaking west-facing views across the Cumberland Valley.

    The final bit of path to the lookout is very rocky, so mind your footing, but the views as you arrive make it all worthwhile. There is a water fountain in the campground neaby.
