Review & Frequenly Asked Questions:

Thrill-seeking and American history go hand-in-hand when visitors come to Frederick where they can kayak on the bay before visiting a museum then spending the evening at a lush martini bar. Many of the Civil War-era buildings still stand amongst boutiques, art galleries, performance theaters, and museums. Frederick is centrally located to Baltimore, Washington D.C. and Gettysburg and has some of the best water and mountain views along the east coast. Visitors who want to spend time outdoors can tour the wineries, hike the Appalachian Trail, or visit the remnants of battlefields. The family-friendly town also features a wildlife preserve, children’s museum, Adventure Park USA, Harpers Ferry Adventure Center, and several orchards.
