Crossing Over the C&O Canal

Highlight • Bridge

It's just a shame that cycling is only allowed on the paved road. The many earthy trails to the right and left of the road are very tempting for a mountain biker. Unfortunately explicitly forbidden.

Fishing Shore Beach

Highlight • Beach

Nestled beside the Capital Crescent Trail, this cozy fishing beach along the Potomac River invites cyclists to stop and recharge. A perfect spot to take a breather from your ride.
