Maryland's Cross Island Trail spans Kent Island in Queen Anne's County, providing
multiple points of access to everything from libraries and schools, to ball fields and
the waterfront. It's an impressively signed, well-maintained, beautiful community as-
set.
Begin at Terrapin Nature Park, a parcel of protected land for birds and native
plant life. Just past the nature area, to the left of the trail, is an old graveyard with less
than a dozen cracked and weather headstones tucked into the trees. If you can spot it,
it's worth a peak. From here, the trail quickly winds through light residential neigh-
borhoods and stands of white pines and hemlocks.
