The Hike To This Gorgeous Maryland Swimming Hole Is Everything You Could Imagine
The following state park just may be the most beautiful place in Maryland and you can ALSO swim here as well! Check out Swallow Falls State Park this summer to hike, take in the scenery, and cool off among nature.
Swallow Falls State Park is located in western Maryland. In fact, it's about as far west as you can go in the state.
This area is gorgeous and if you've never visited, be sure to put it on your Maryland bucket list. Pictured here is the impressive Muddy Creek Falls...
There's a trail between the two that's perfect for a scenic hike. The best part is that it's only a little over a mile in length, although it is a bit bumpy. Be on the lookout for boulders and logs.
...and other times (particularly after a hard rain), the current can be a bit rough. You may even spot kayakers here practicing among the waterfall's rapids.
We love Swallow Falls State Park and you can explore much more of the area as well! For a list of more outdoor attractions around Garrett County, click here.
