Description:
|
The walk is through the historic city of Annapolis, which is also the capital of Maryland and home of the U.S. Naval Academy. The route follows road shoulders and primarily sidewalks. Annapolis pavements are rough (part of the historic flavor) but suitable for large-wheeled strollers. This trail does not go through the Naval Academy. Visitor Bureau hours are 9-5 daily except Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Year's Day.
