outdoor activities in Harpers Ferry!

Our area is a mecca for outdoor enthusiasts! Here is a quick guide to our recommendations for outdoor activities in the area:

Maryland Heights Overlook

Maryland Heights is a scenic and historic trail, accessible from the C&O Canal Towpath. You can park in downtown Harpers Ferry, walk across the pedestrian bridge over the Potomac River, and come down to the towpath where you can get to the trailhead. This hike has good variety - some of it is steep, some of it is more level, some of it is switch backs. The view is definitely worth it!

Tubing

There are a number of rafting and tubin companies in the area that will drop you off and pick you up (and provide you with your tube). We recommend , Harpers Ferry Adventure Center (rafting, tubing, kayaking, ziplining, ropes course, segway tours, etc.), River Riders (rafting, tubing, aerial adventure park, mountain biking, stand up paddle boards, etc.), and River and Trail (rafting, tubing, kayaking, canoeing, ziplining, biking, etc.)

Guided fishing expedition

If you are looking to go fishing, we recommend King Fisher Guide Services. They provide guided fishing tours on the Potomac and Shenandoah Rivers. Fish for Smallmouth Bass and many other species in a 14 foot custom fishing raft made specifically for the local waters. Enjoy scenic views of the beautiful Shenandoah Valley! Let them know Tiny Haven sent you :)

Kayaking and Canoeing

Bring your own kayak or canoe or rent one from Shepherdstown Pedal and Paddle.

You can put in at the Princess Street Boat Ramp in Shepherdstown WV and head up or down the Potomac River!

Biking the C&O Canal Towpath

Rent a bike, bring a bike, or bike to us! The C&O Canal Towpath is a flat path that goes all the way from Washington DC to Berkeley Springs WV. Guests have biked to Tiny Haven Harpers Ferry along this path!
