Great Allegheny Passage
Pittsburgh, PA 15219
Region: Laurel Highlands
Enjoy an unforgettable day on the Great Allegheny Passage—a 150-mile, nearly flat recreational trail that stretches across the Laurel Highlands, connecting Pittsburgh to Cumberland, Maryland. This spectacular route winds through scenic mountains, waterfalls, tunnels, and viaducts, tracing the path of America’s westward expansion. With access to trailheads, restaurants, lodging, camping, and bike shops along the way, the GAP was the first trail in the U.S. inducted into the Rails to Trails Hall of Fame. Explore a short section through charming trail towns or take on a multi-day adventure by linking to the C&O Canal Towpath in Cumberland for a continuous ride to Washington, D.C.
