ベッドフォード郡のおすすめツーリングルート

One of my favorites! Mostly flat and easy with some slightly uphill sections. Family friendly with wi-fi connectivity, food resupply and lodging/camping available (not too many options as the C&O is offering.... just plan ahead)

This part of the original Pennsylvania Turnpike was bypassed in 1968 to ease traffic congestion. The three tunnels were part of a failed railroad project. Now nature reclaims the area back. The surface is cracked and overgrown with plants. Watch out for glass splinters. The tunnels are full with graffiti. The entrance of the Rays Hill Tunnel became popular after the post-apocalyptic movie 'The Road' based on the book by Cormack McCarthy. It serves as a great setting for an apocalyptic scenery.

Bring some lights. The tunnels are dark

The Mason-Dixon Line Monument marks the historic boundary between the states of Maryland and Pennsylvania. Today, it is a scenic rest stop for hikers, featuring a granite obelisk, engraved blocks spelling "Mason & Dixon," and a replica of the surveyors' 66-foot chain. It is a great photo opportunity and Easily a must-see for history buffs.

The Western Maryland Scenic Railroad crosses two historic girder bridges built by the Cumberland & Pennsylvania Railroad. Now part of the scenic route traveled by the Frostburg Flyer, these bridges show off iconic views of steam locomotives climbing the final stretch into town, which are popular among train photographers.

Northwest of Cumberland sits Mount Savage Historic District, a former industrial hub that is home to nearly 200 buildings and sites from the 19th and early 20th centuries. This area was once a booming hub for iron, coal, brick, and rail industries. Highlights include “Old Row,” a line of vertical-board duplexes built around 1840, which is listed in the National Register of Historic Places.

The Trail Inn Lodging & Campground is a great place to stop as you are traveling along the GAP. There is food, camping, a hostel and private rooms.

The official Mile 0 of the Great Allegheny Passage is found in downtown Cumberland under the arch, next to the train station and connected to the northern terminus of the C&O Canal and Towpath. The town is well-connected, with Amtrak service and ample overnight parking.
