Distance: 5 miles 
Difficulty: Moderate  
Elevation Gain: 816 ft
Terrain: Woods with a Rocky overlook


Review:
Annapolis Rocks is one of my favorite hikes in the Frederick, MD Area. Enjoy a fabulous overlook featuring boulders, woods, and lake while scampering around on the "Annapolis Rocks." Be pre-warned...you earn that overlook.

Follow a short trail from the parking lot to the Appalachian Trail Head and go north. Ps. All Appalachian trail markers are white and are very well labeled. The trail will take you 2 miles uphill until you intersect the Annapolis Rock trail head. Follow the blue markers .25 miles to the wonderful overlook. Thankfully most of the hike is in the woods, and has lots of shade for those hot summer day hikes.

While it is great to have this trail conveniently located off of route 40 and next to route 70 it does mean that you hear a lot of road noise until you get farther up the mountain.


Parking: 
11192 Baltimore National Pike, 
Myersville, MD 21773

There is lots of parking, but it can still be challenging to find a spot to park on busy weekends.
