If you are looking to augment your physical workout with some intellectual exercise,
try out the Baltimore and Annapolis Trail, or the B&A Trail. This scenic, paved path
is more than just a trail—it's a history lesson and tour through our solar system.
The trail follows the route of the Annapolis and Baltimore Short Line, which
started running freight and passenger service in 1880 and helped shape this suburban
region near the nation's capital. Today, the trail is a 112-acre linear park that winds
through parks, neighborhoods, and natural wooded areas. The trail also passes the
Marley Station shopping mall, and the ranger station at mile marker 6.3, where public
grills and a large field make an ideal picnic stop. Portions of the trail are sponsored by
trail volunteers who tend the flowerbeds and kiosks along the trail.
