One of my favorite rides! The trail is well maintained and smooth. So many spots to rest and take breathtaking pics

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)

Small welcome center. Has three picnic tables, water inside and information about the town.

The Knobley Tunnel Trail, also known as the Carpendale Trail, is a short but scenic rail-trail spanning only 0.8 miles. Bikers can check out the 1,500-foot tunnel through Knobley Mountain and a 386-foot wooden bridge over the North Branch of the Potomac River. The Knobley Tunnel Trail connects directly to the C&O Canal Towpath near mile marker 183, and is not always open, so check for posted signage.

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.

A paved elevated boardwalk stretches out along the water, giving you a fantastic view of the Potomac River. This spot can get pretty popular on summer weekends.

Dam No. 4 is located around mile 84 of the C&O Canal Towpath. Built in 1856, this dam was crucial for maintaining water levels for canal operations and remains an impressive structure along the river. The area around the dam is known for its scenic views and wildlife.
