Harper's Ferry
Road
Begins: On 340 about 2/10th's of a mile north of the second bridge above
Harper's Ferry (the bridge between Maryland & West Virginia) at a blinking light
halfway up the hill.
Ends: In Sharpsburg. Note:
While not
a challenging motorcycle road, Harper's Ferry Road offers some of the finest
"rolling farmland" riding in the area. This is an old road and was used
repeatedly during the Civil War to move troops to and from Harper's Ferry. The
northern end is in Sharpsburg, Maryland, a beautiful old town home to many small
antique shops, and the southern end next to Harper's Ferry, a left-hand turn off
of Rt. 340 just after crossing the bridge into Maryland (where it is known as
"Sandy Hook Rd.)
