The C&O Canal National Historical Park has an extensive history.
The canal has a history as long and complex as the United States.
Fraught with twists and turns that belie its past
The C&O Canal Towpath Trail is a trail bound to last.

The total length of this trail if over 184 miles
So if you plan to hike, you should determine your path.
It isn’t the kind of adventure you can finish in a single day
So plan to camp and have a few days with which to pay.

The full length of the trial is form Washington DC to Cumberland, Maryland
A trip of several days and several different distinct sections.
You can check out waterfalls that the canal was designed to avoid
The sights are astonishing, so you can come visit to relax if you are annoyed.

The first portion of the trail begins in DC
Following the twists and turns of the trail
You will so find yourself in the middle of the nation’s first 100 years
Trekking the paths that ancestors feared.

The second section takes across the East Coast single mountain range.
The Appalachian Trail will run across your path
Giving you an amazing view of everything around you.
From here you can choose your adventure, you choose what to do.

The third section is filled with points relevant to highlights in history.
You’ll encounter some amazing scenes
And the wildlife here goes well with the verdant trail.
It is with regret that you will finish, every sight you’ll try to remember in detail.

The final part, the fourth, is perfect for those who want another view
It gives the dedicated bikers a fantastic place to do their thing.
Given one full day you should be able to complete this part
And like the rest of the trail,  you will love it right from the start.
