The Potomac River carves through a landscape where three states meet, anchoring a corridor of historical transportation and settlement. The Chesapeake and Ohio Canal National Historical Park follows the northern riverbank, paralleled by the Western Maryland Rail-Trl, reflecting the era when coal and timber moved through this valley by water and rail. The town of Hancock serves as a central hub where Tonoloway Creek meets the Potomac, while across the river in West Virginia, the mineral springs of Bath (Berkeley Springs) and the community of North Berkeley highlight the region’s long-standing role as a destination.
