Outdoor time is a staple here.

To the south, the overlooks and picnic areas at Dan’s Mountain State Park provide sweeping ridge-top views at Dan’s Mountain State Park. In downtown Cumberland, the C&O Canal National Historical Park invites towpath biking and Potomac River scenery at C&O Canal National Historical Park, while rail fans can climb aboard the Western Maryland Scenic Railroad for a mountain run through the Alleghenies at Western Maryland Scenic Railroad.
