Rail-trails are multi-use public paths that are built on unused former railroad corridors. This guide offers detailed maps of 56 rail-trails in Delaware, Maryland, Virginia, and West Virginia. Each entry includes a b&w photo, directions to the trailhead, and a brief description of the trail. Icons clearly indicate each trail's use (i.e., hiking, bicycling, equestrian, wheelchair) and show where parking, drinking water, and bathrooms may be found.
