About this event

Directions to Harper's Ferry from Baltimore: 70 West to 340 South. Follow 340 to MD 67 West (Only Choice). From MD 67, make the First Right at Weverton Cliffs RD. Go about 3 Blocks and make a right at the Parking Lot. Huge Lot - Plenty of Parking. Note: If you cross bridge (Potomac River) into Virginia, then you passed MD 67N. The entire hike is on the Appalachian Trail.

Hike starts with a steep climb to the top of Weverton Cliffs, so there will be several stops along the way. At the top of the hill, we proceed to hike for another 3 miles on the Appalachian Trail. Then we turn back and proceed to the Weverton Cliffs Overlook. Lunch at Overlook. The overlook provides scenic views of the Potomac River. Note: Climb Not as long or steep as MD Heights or Louden Heights.

Optional: Harper's Ferry Brewery after the hike. Take Rt 340 toward Harper's Ferry. After crossing the bridge from Maryland into Virginia, make the first left. Sign: Harper's ferry Brewery. Go up the hill and the brewery is on the left.

Dogs Allowed.

Bring plenty of water (at least 2 Liters) and a lunch for the overlook.

This is a Slightly Strenuous Hike!

Note: This is a steep climb to the top. Multiple stops during the climb. You are rewarded with one of the best views in the local area.
