Your guide to Harpers Ferry
All About Harpers Ferry
Located on the easternmost edge of West Virginia, Harpers Ferry sits at the confluence of the Shenandoah and Potomac rivers, just across the water from Virginia and Maryland. The town is surrounded by the Harpers Ferry National Historical Park, with walking trails and Civil War-era battlefield sites. The John Brown Wax Museum, Industry Museum, and Meriwether Lewis Exhibit are also right in town, giving you a window into local history, such as the way 19th-century weapons factories played a role in the Lewis and Clark Expedition and Harpers Ferry Raid.
Although the primary draw to Harpers Ferry continues to be its historical significance, today the town is known for its surrounding natural beauty and rolling hills full of chestnut oak and bitternut hickory forests. The famous 2,000-mile Appalachian Trail, which stretches from Maine to Georgia, cuts through the town center, and many hikers like to rest in Harpers Ferry for a spell to recover.
The best time to stay in a vacation rental in Harpers Ferry
The inland northern climate of Harpers Ferry has weather conditions that vary drastically with the seasons. Summers are pleasantly warm with moderately dry conditions that make for enjoyable hiking weather while exploring the region’s historical sites and local sections of the Appalachian Trail. May through September is an excellent time to book a cabin in Harpers Ferry, as the weather is also conducive to checking out the surrounding communities of D.C. and Baltimore.
Winters see temperatures that drop to consistently below-freezing levels, accompanied by moderate snowfall and precipitation above the national average. The shoulder seasons can be a wonderful time to visit, too, particularly the fall, as the surrounding hills are endowed with brilliant autumn hues, and you can find events like the Blue Ridge Arts & Crafts Festival taking place in October.
Top things to do in Harpers Ferry
Jefferson Rock
A popular stop for hikers along the Appalachian Trail, this rock formation and scenic overlook is just a 13-minute hike from the center of Harpers Ferry. Four stone pillars and slabs of shale stacked atop one another create this dramatic formation on a rocky point extending over the confluence of the Potomac and Shenandoah rivers. You will be treated to the stunning scenery of the surrounding landscapes and township below.
Harpers Ferry National Historical Park
This historical area, run by the National Park Service, circles the town of Harpers Ferry and includes more than 20 miles of walking trails and a series of museums dedicated to Civil War-era history. A particularly noteworthy stop, the Black Voices Museum, gives an historical account of the African American experience in the United States.
Potomac River and Shenandoah River
The Potomac and Shenandoah rivers hold abundant opportunities for water-based activities. You can find leisurely recreation like swimming, sunbathing, and paddleboarding close to town in Harpers Ferry, while more action-packed whitewater rafting trips and kayaking adventures are located further west along the Potomac River or south down the Shenandoah River.
