“extending along 32 miles of the Patapsco River”
The Hollofield Area of Patapsco is located almost in The Patapsco Riverthe center of the Park along Rt 40 (Baltimore National Pike). Home to Park Headquarters and one of two campgrounds in the park, this area has one of the most stunning views of the Patapsco River Valley. The Overlook changes with every season from the brilliant greens of spring to the rich colors of fall. The Patapsco River Valley shows its full beauty in every season from this vantage point. This area is perfect for a family gathering or a quick picnic lunch while on your lunch break from work.
I camped here overnight with a one year old and it was pretty great. Very clean and well maintained facilities, plenty of things for families to do (a few different playgrounds, hiking trails), and nice little gravel pads for camping. No one was at the ranger station when I got in so I was a little disoriented when I arrived; I feel like the signage could be a little more idiot-proof. The staff I encountered later were very friendly and helpful. There was plenty of nature to enjoy but I could still occasionally hear planes, trains, and automobiles.
Beautiful!! Totally worth the stop!
While not nationally ranked, it's one of the best hiking places between Pa an DC. Great for day hikers, and done very challenging trails. Hills are steep in some areas... But it has a rich history or hidden gems.
Very close to home and a lot to explore!
