South Mountain State Park
Phone: 999-999-9999
This historic park has over 10,000 acres for year-round hiking along the Appalachian Trail. South Mountain, a ridge composed largely of resistant quartzite, posed a formidable obstacle to the early settlers until 1755 when General Edward Braddock and a young surveyor, George Washington, constructed a road over one of its passes. Greenbrier, Washington Monument and Gathland are neighboring state parks along South Mountain. Echo Lake, a small section of South Mountain State Park, is an area that may be reserved for organized youth groups. This is a Maryland State Park. For full information go to the official webpage.
