Hiking
Tuscarora Trail is a long distance trail of 252-mile that crosses Virginia, West Virginia, Maryland and Pennsylvania, going through George Washington National Forest, following the Appalachian Mountains. It was created in 1960 as an alternative to the Appalachian Trail, so it goes parallel to it. The trail can be combined with different other trails in the National Forest.
