Ride Description

Escape the hustle and bustle of Washington D.C. via the Chesapeake and Ohio Canal (C&O) Towpath and connect MOCO singletrack to make a nice 3 day, 2 night loop.

Follow the C&O from Georgetown and head out towards Darnestown. Then take a quick jaunt on country roads and jump onto the MOCO Epic single track that winds through various state parks and shoots right back onto the C&O Canal. Camping the first night at the Chisel Branch Hiker/Biker campsite on the C&O and then camping in Little Bennett Regional Park for night 2 (you are responsible for your own camping reservations).

On Sunday morning, we'll ride down through the Magruder Branch Stream Valley Unit and Great Seneca Stream Valley Units on our way back to the C&O. Sunday will be the longest day at about 60 miles. Looking for a group of 4-8 to make this ride!
