Maryland
Heights Overlook Guided Hike
Guided hiking tour Harper's Ferry
Road to Maryland Heights
Maryland Heights is the area's BEST for scenic hikes. Add to
that an area rich in American history and you have a must-do hike!
The trail begins just across from the historic C&O
Canal, that threads its way up the Potomac River. You'll climb steadily up a
picturesque stream valley, lined with rock outcroppings and forests. When you
reach the top of the mountain, a side trail winding through the woods leads you
to the spectacular overlook of two rivers and three states. Maryland Heights
towers above the confluence of the Shenandoah and Potomac Rivers and Harpers
Ferry National Park. You are on top of the world!
"Harpers Ferry played an especially important role during
the Civil War. So important was this site that it changed hands 8 times during
the four years of the war. Batteries of artillery occupied several sites on the
surrounding hills including the slopes of Maryland Heights. The early
abolitionist John Brown seized an armory in Harpers Ferry and made a valiant
last stand against federal troops." - Charles D
