Eastern Continental Divide

The Eastern Continental Divide Loop is a developing 150-mile network of hiking, backpacking, biking, paddling, and rafting trails in Garret County, MD and Somerset County, PA. The trail is meant to eventually connect Maryland’s largest wild forests with state parks, communities, and the Great Allegheny Passage. The Potomac Heritage National Scenic Trail currently shares a few sections with the Eastern Continental Divide Loop, including these hiking trails:

  • Big Savage Trail - 17 miles
  • Meadow Mountain Trail - 14 miles
  • Monroe Run Trail - 5 miles (one-way)
