Trail description

From the Appalachian Trail parking on US 40 near Boonsboro the white-blazed AT climbs gently along South Mountain to a side trail that leads to Annapolis Rock, a line of sandstone cliffs with a wide view west over Greenbrier Lake and the Cumberland Valley. A campground with a caretaker sits just behind the rocks.
