点评:The Harpers Ferry Historical National Park (NP) charges a $20 entrance fee per car that is good for three consecutivedays. You could present your NP seniors pass if you have it with you.
The Lower Trail Head is a “strenuous” hike down the hill from the parking lot across the road to Harpers Ferry town then across train tracks through a field of delightful Virginia Bluebells to Shenandoah River shore.
There is a shuttle bus that visitors could take to historical Harpers Ferry town where we found the Stone Steps to St. Peter’s Church that also leads to the Jefferson Rock, a steep climb but good cardio exercise and a portion of the 2,200-mile Appalachian trail.
The foot bridge across the Potomac River to the Maryland Trail Head is on the right of the road from the bus stop.
The Murphy Farm trail is an easy to moderate hike through a lush tranquil meadow or an unpaved road to a beautiful overlook of the Shenandoah River from a 600-meter cliff dotted with pink Spring flowering trees.

下步道起点是一条“难度较高”的徒步路线,从马路对面的停车场出发,沿着山坡向下走到哈珀斯费里镇,然后穿过铁路,途经一片美丽的弗吉尼亚蓝铃花田,最终到达谢南多厄河岸。
游客可以乘坐穿梭巴士前往历史悠久的哈珀斯费里镇。在那里,我们发现了通往圣彼得教堂的石阶,这条石阶也通往杰斐逊岩。攀登杰斐逊岩需要一定的体力,但也是很好的有氧运动,而且这条路线也是全长 2200 英里的阿巴拉契亚山径的一部分。
从巴士站出发,沿着道路向右走,就能看到横跨波托马克河通往马里兰步道起点的步行桥。
墨菲农场步道是一条难度适中的徒步路线,穿过郁郁葱葱的宁静草地或未铺设的道路,到达一个美丽的观景点,可以俯瞰谢南多厄河,600 米高的悬崖上点缀着粉红色的春季开花树木。
