The Wayne Gilchrest Trail, Chestertown MD

The Wayne Gilchrest Trail, which opened on Earth Day in 2012, runs along the southern edge of the historic Maryland Eastern Shore community of Chestertown. Start your journey at popular Wilmer Park on the Chester River. The trail begins just across S. Cross Street from the park, where an original train station has been converted to office use. Because the trail occupies an abandoned rail corridor that last saw freight service in the early 1990s, trail users are treated to a flat surface and gentle curves.
