앨러가니 카운티 최고의 워킹 & 하이킹 경로

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)

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.

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.

The GAP does not pass through the center of Frostburg, but that does not stop the town from being a popular stop for cyclists on the trail. It's a short ride from the trail head into the historic town, which started as a stagecoach stop and was a major coal mining hub. Now, the town is full of restaurants, culture, and accommodation. At the trailhead, there are restrooms and water available, as well as parking.

The Paw Paw Tunnel is an engineering marvel along the C&O Canal, built to avoid constructing six miles of canal along the river. Work began in 1836, but labor disputes, funding issues, and the challenges of tunneling through shale delayed completion for 14 years. Finally opening in 1850, the 3,118-foot tunnel has faced ongoing rockslides throughout its history. Today, visitors can explore the tunnel with a flashlight to spot historical features like weep holes and rub rails. If riding your bike through its best to have a headlamp and to be cautious in the dark. Afterward, the two-mile Tunnel Hill Trail offers stunning views of the Paw Paw Bends.

The Potomac River stretches 405 miles and crosses the borders of four states (Virginia, West Virginia, Pennsylvania, and Maryland). Aside from simply being nice to look at, the river is rich in local history and provides recreational opportunities such as rafting, kayaking, and fishing. The Potomac River is the fourth largest river along the Atlantic coast.
