Connector Trail from AT to Appalachian Trail Visitor Center 252 McDowell Street, Harpers Ferry, WV 25425

"As part of the Appalachian Trail, this portion is accessible either from Rt. 340 or from historical Harpers Ferry. If visiting downtown and wanting a short hiking experience with a few worthwhile historical sites, the Connector Trail is more than ideal. Along this short path, the town church, cemetery, historical church ruins, and Jefferson Rock attraction will be passed. Generally, this path is accommodating to novice hikers. The path itself is narrow with some moments of steep elevation. It should also be said that some specific spots require climbing more so than stepping, such as utilizing large rocks to move forward."

"Very historical with little small houses all full of stories. Enjoyed my time here and will definitely be coming back"

"A lovely place with many outdoors activities to explore."

"Harpers Ferry WV is a very Beautiful place to visit. A lot of history. All kind of places to stay and do. River Riders has camp sites, RV sites, Hotel,Zip Line, Rafting, Tubing."

"Found this trail as I was hiking on the AT back to my car. The Potomac Heritage Trail branches off the AT going to the left downhill. Alternate route down to the road. Steep, with loose gravel. Wear sturdy footwear...and hiking poles helpful!"
