About TrailGuide
TrailGuide is packed with mile-by-mile trail descriptions, town maps and directories, and itineraries for day trips, weekends, and thru-rides.
Filled with great photography, an updated list of campgrounds, and suggestions for getting to and from the GAP and C&O Canal Towpath from shuttle services to Amtrak’s Floridian. At 232 pages, it’s comprehensive, but still fits nicely into a trunk-mounted rack or in the outside sleeve of a backpack.
Proceeds help the Great Allegheny Passage Conservancy fund emergency repairs and enhancements along both trails.
Includes Official Trip-Planning Maps
TrailGuide includes the official maps for the Great Allegheny Passage and C&O Canal Towpath, printed on weatherproof paper and removable from the rest of the book. They’re folded from a 7.625” x 24.75” size to fit in your pocket. The maps are suitable for detailed trip-planning, and include parking, available amenities, major highways, trail towns, campgrounds, waterways, and connecting trails.
