A pathway to an unforgettable cycling experience
This fall, you won’t worry about traffic as you ride your hybrid or mountain bike 330 miles on gently graded gravel trails from the heart of the nation’s capital north into Pennsylvania. Historically, the Chesapeake & Ohio Canal served as a lifeline for early settlers. Today, it serves as a pathway to an unforgettable cycling experience.
We’ll begin with a visit to the National Mall, and then, after bidding adieu to DC, we’ll head through stylish Georgetown and deep into rural Maryland. We’ll visit Antietam National Battlefield, site of the Civil War’s bloodiest battle, and Fort Frederick, a restored 1756 British outpost. In lively Cumberland, Maryland, we’ll move over to the Great Allegheny Passage, a stellar rail trail completed in 2006. Upon finishing in Pittsburgh, we’ll catch a shuttle back to Washington, DC.
