Maryland Heights Overlook is a scenic lookout Knoxville located in United States.
Knoxville , MD 21758 United States
A nice, short hike that I have made plenty of times. Careful parking on the Maryland side of the river though - someone broke into my car through the back window while I hiked . Glass everywhere. ????
The red blazed Overlook Trail is shorter with less climbing, still a great view .
A stunning view . Aim for dusk to get some special shots. Or if you're feeling very confident, trek up their early to get some shots at dawn when the clouds are below you.
It's steep in places, but the track is wide and very well maintained, just take your time. The view at the end is worth it.
Hike up to the fort and then the overlook for a great workout. Bring binoculars , water & snacks
Outstanding view if you can survive the walk!
Very tough hike , take good shoes and plenty of water. But worth every bead of sweat!!!!!!
Good and awesome view looking down on Harper’s Ferry
Hike the green to red trail towards the Overlook Cliffs. The ascent will be worth it once you see the view . :)
Not a trail for beginners. Great exercise. Bring water , you'll need it.
Beautiful overlook!!!
Awesome view
Don't forget to bring water !!!
Lots of switchbacks on the way up, not a good hike for the kiddos, but wow what a view! Watch the sun rise here at least once. - Christopher Vigliotti
The views from the route 340 Bridge are certainly very good - Dave Lepkowski
Maryland Heights is part of the Harpers Ferry National Historical Park. Plenty of parking at the Visitor Center. Ride air-conditioned buses from the Visitor Center to lower town. - Suz Leigh
Can't miss the waterfall! Magnificent! - Matrix Teaches
Honey brie starter was tasty. Portobello wrap was also decent. - Kirsten Rendell
