Chesapeake and Ohio Canal
What people are saying
Amazing trail!!! Even for the novice bike rider. If you can’t ride the full trail just pick a small section and soak in the beauty of the path and all the surrounding nature. There are many parking spot along the path. History markers along the trail give a brief history of the area.
I took my ebike here for a ride. I decided to go upstream to Brunswick. Along the way, there are historical markers and park benches to rest. I was surprised to find a campsite along the towpath. There are pit toilets at the parking lot and a portable toilet at the campsite. Before I got to Brunswick, I discovered that the bridge was out. There is a detour with a place to ford the stream. I decided to turn back here because I didn't want to risk falling in or getting my feet wet. It was very enjoyable, I will be back.
Just finished a four day walk from mile 0 to Dickerson Conservation area - 39.5 miles total. Towpath is in really good shape, with tons of wildlife and lots of joggers and cyclists. Be sure to avoid the 10 am-4 pm time period since it's really humid next to the river in July!
Beautiful and clean. Restrooms are opened. They take credit card only so the line crawls painfully slow. We waited about 40' before we could get inside the park.
Beautiful trail facing the river, perfect for a picnic with a amazing view, don’t forget to pack your trash this is a trash free park, dogs on leash are welcome.
