WHILE HISTORY AND SCENERY ARE THE DOMINANT ATTRACTIONS OF THIS CORNER OF WEST VIRGINIA AND MARYLAND, SHOPPING, DINING AND HIKING ALSO PROVIDE LURES. To get a bird's eye view of Harpers Ferry, hike up to Maryland Heights, a 350-foot cliff overlooking the town. The Maryland Heights Trail is about 4.5 to 6.5 miles round trip (depending on which route you choose) and can be steep and rocky in places. 54 | BlueRidgeCountry.com
