Setting

Some privacy

This hiker-biker spot sits at Mile 169.1 along the C&O Canal towpath, part of a chain of overnight stops spaced every 5 to 7 miles. The layout provides basic grounds equipped with picnic tables, fire grills, and chemical toilets. Water is provided on site, though it is non-potable and requires filtering, boiling, or chemical treatment before drinking or cooking; supply is turned off entirely from mid-November to mid-April.
