Annapolis Rock is a scenic overlook in South Mountain State Park in rural Maryland. It is a 5.3-mile hike, up and back, on the white-blazed Appalachian Trail, to get there. The 1700 foot cliff overlooks the Cumberland Valley. The view is breath-taking. It is considered a moderately difficult hike. There are some strenuous sections with rocky stairs to navigate. Overall, you gain about 780 feet in elevation. At times, footing can be difficult to navigate. Ty and I did this hike on April 16. I was proud of us. We're both amateur hikers and a bit on the chubby side. Next time, I need to bring more water for Ty. Fortunately, some people at the top had some water to spare for Ty. And, some treats!
