Family Hike at Harpers Ferry: Maryland Heights Trail
Even though Maryland weather is hit or miss this time of year, we had a great day hiking in historic 𝗛𝗮𝗿𝗽𝗲𝗿𝘀 𝗙𝗲𝗿𝗿𝘆!
⠀
We decided to check out the 𝗠𝗮𝗿𝘆𝗹𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗛𝗲𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁𝘀 𝗧𝗿𝗮𝗶𝗹: it is roughly 4.5 miles from the downtown Harpers Ferry.
⠀
📍Head over the footbridge just past The Point next to John Brown’s Fort
📍Follow the signs to the Maryland Heights Trail
📍Follow the green blaze trail
📍Choose between the 2.8 mile Overlook Cliff Trail (red)
📍Or the more strenuous 4.7 mile Stone Fort Trail (blue)
📍Both options are up and back
⠀
My family opted for the Overlook Cliff Trail which went past a Naval Battery overlook + descended to a clearing where we could see the whole downtown area along with the majestic birds flying around the cliffs.
⠀
There are lots of great places to hike and explore around historic Harpers Ferry, which is situated on the border of 3 states: West Virginia, Virginia + Maryland.
⠀
The downtown area is free to access, but you need to pay admission to park at the Visitors Center (highly recommended during peak times) + take the shuttle as well as access the trails and historic buildings.
