Congratulations! You've reached the highest point in the Great Allegheny Passage, which runs from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania to Cumberland, Maryland.

The Eastern Continental Divide marks a stark divide between two watersheds: To your east, the waterways drain (eventually) into the Atlantic Ocean. The waters to your west funnel toward the Gulf of Mexico.

Meyersdale Visitors Center

Highlight • Rest Area

Nice place to stop for lunch or a break. Visitor's center includes a small museum on the history of Meyersdale and the region, a gift shop, bathrooms, water, and a room with model trains. They can answer information on the GAP and local places to eat or sleep.

Salisbury Viaduct

Highlight • Bridge

The Salisbury Viaduct is one of several engineering masterpieces along the GAP. The steel bridge was constructed in 1911 and for years took trains across the Casselman River. Now, it gives GAP users an amazing 360 degree view of the forest below and is a popular place to watch the sunrise or sunset.

Meyersdale Maple Campground

Highlight • Rest Area

Great, simple place to camp. Nice bath house with showers. Firewood was provided and very safe. I would highly recommend.
