Summary

Highlighting some of the most breathtaking scenery and wildlife in the eastern United States, this guide to the greater Washington, DC, area makes it easy to explore natural beauty spots in central Maryland and northern Virginia over a day or a weekend. With an emphasis on efficiency, all the destinations listed can be reached within a three-hour drive from the nation's capital. To save time, the book goes after the best outdoor experiences, including the best hiking, biking, and paddling in the region; the best vantage points to glimpse birds and animals; and the best times for seasonal events such as the spring bloom and the peak autumn color. From hiking in the Appalachian Mountains or paddling the mighty Potomac River to watching the winter snow geese migrate on the eastern shore of Maryland, the book provides an inspiring range of adventures, all illustrated with stunning, full-color photos.
