Top Spots in or near Gettysburg

Rock Climb at White Rocks

Chambersburg, Pennsylvania

White Rocks, a segment of the slightly larger Pond Bank area, is a single pitch top rope or traditional climbing area. To get there, follow 30 until you are a few miles west of Caledonia State park and reach an intersection of 997. You can then head south on 997 until you reach White Rock Road. Follow this road until you find some trail blazes on trees to your left and park at one of the many ...

Hike to High Rock on the Appalachian Trail

Sabillasville, Maryland

4.0

6 mi / 2000 ft gain

Start your hike where the AT crosses Raven Rock Road (Maryland Route 491). This crossing is well-marked from both sides by large, yellow signs and blazed stakes. You will need to park on the side of the road, but the shoulder is wide and can accommodate a crowd. The first half mile or so of this hike is hard; you'll be climbing more than a thousand feet up uneven stone steps and switchbacks. L...

Hike to Sunset Rocks in Michaux State Forest

Gardners, Pennsylvania

4.0

8.3 mi / 1000 ft gain

Sunset Rocks is a scenic two-mile spur off the Appalachian Trail in southern Pennsylvania's Michaux State Forest. If you hike it as a loop--incorporating 6 miles of the AT into the circuit--you can visit some of the AT's most notable landmarks in this area, including the remains of Michaux Camp (a former CCC turned WWII POW camp), the halfway point of the 2,200-mile journey, and the Appalachian...

Camp at Tom's Run Shelter

Newville, Pennsylvania

3 mi / 85 ft gain

Starting from the small parking area on Bunkerhill Rd, head north (turn right) onto Michaux Rd. After about 1/3 of a mile you will reach the Appalachian Trail where you will want to head west (turn left).This will lead you on a leisurely hike through the woods (follow the white blazes). It won't be long until you see a mailbox and a fancy signpost up ahead. This marks the exact halfway point of...

Hike the Catoctin Mountain Extended Loop Trail

Thurmont, Maryland

4.5

8.6 mi / 1696 ft gain

This 8.6 mile loop trail in Catoctin Mountain Park is good for both hikers and trail runners. This loop is the larger loop in the park, comprised of Cunningham Falls, Hog Rock, Blue Ridge Summit, Thurmont Vista, Wolf Rock, and Chimney Rock. The trail gets a moderate rating because it's mostly rocky, making for a little more challenging footing. To get started, park at the Catoctin Mountain Visi...

Hike Chimney Rock at Catoctin Mountain Park

Thurmont, Maryland

4.2

5 mi / 600 ft gain

Chimney Rock is the quintessential breathtaking view that makes a hike worthwhile. By parking at the most northeast parking lot on the trail map you are able to include the sweeping views of Thurmont Vista, and Wolf Rock on your way to Chimney Rock. Highly recommend visiting in the fall, and on weekdays if possible, as the park is popular and can become very crowded.
