Hiking and Biking
The Canyon Trail
(foot traffic only, no bikes please.)
This 1 ¼ mile hiking trail through an old growth forest passes by several waterfalls, including Muddy Creek Falls, the highest free-falling waterfall in Maryland.
Wet weather can create hazardous trail conditions, such as slippery surfaces and swollen creeks, especially during the winter when ice and/or snow is present. Sturdy footwear and crampons are recommended when trail conditions are slick.
The 5.5 mile Trail
This hiking trail connects Swallow Falls and
Herrington Manor State Park through the Garrett State Forest. The 5.5 mile trail is also accessible for mountain biking.
