Top-rated campgrounds near Catonsville

  • MaryAnn Furnace trail...about 3 plus miles. Nice but it doesn't go to the actual site of the furnace (which is gone anyways)
  • Horsetrail winds thru a cool forest. I did a loop of 4 1/2 miles. Missed the southernmost loop
  • MaryAnn Furnace trail...about 3 plus miles. Nice but it doesn't go to the actual site of the furnace (which is gone anyways)

Say hello to Tuckahoe! 20 miles of hiking and biking surround the upper branch of Tuckahoe Creek, making it no surprise that this park hosts an annual triathalon. Don’t worry, though, you don’t have to be in race-shape to enjoy yourself here. Pack a picnic lunch and enjoy the view of 60 acres of the Tuckahoe lake, or get familiar with the local flora at the Adkins Arboretum. This 500-acre public garden boasts more than 600 species of local plantlife. Curious about that flower you saw on your morning bike ride? The Arboretum can help you out. Tours and information are available, or you can wander on your own and geek out on all that greenery.
