Marsden Tract Group Campsite
Chesapeake & Ohio Canal National Historical Park — riverside, hiking
Scouts built the Marsden Tract Group Campground to provide access to larger campsites within easy commuting distance of the D.C. It is located at Mile 11.5 on the C&O Canal Towpath, between the Carderock Recreation Area and the historic Old Anglers Inn (private). The group campsites are nestled in the woods between the Canal and the Potomac River and they are a short distance from many recreational opportunities.
