  • Harpers Ferry is a town in West Virginia. Paths wind through Harpers Ferry National Historical Park, which has 19th-century buildings, a Civil War Museum and John Brown’s Fort, a key site in an 1859 abolitionist raid. The location where the Potomac and Shenandoah rivers meet, known as The Point, offers views of Maryland and Virginia. The Appalachian Trail Visitor Center has exhibits on the long-distance hiking trail.

    I love WV but there's too many people there at Harper's Ferry for me. I rather drive the back roads where its quiet

    Haven't ever been here, but this is on my list of places to go. Looks like lots of history and lots of people out enjoying the area.

      Visiting there was great. You have different museums to go in and out of, a few ice cream shops, eateries, and much more. Hope you enjoy when you do go👍🏾

    Great video. Seems more crowded than I remember it from 10 years ago. I remember several great restaurants there.

      Thanks. It was our first visit. We may come back again one day and bike the trail.

    Very cool! Particularly enjoyed seeing the place from your higher point of view. I wonder why they haven't just gone ahead and closed the roads so the whole thing is walkable and protected. All very pretty though. Keep exploring and sharing...thanks! Bruce and Otis

    • @venturelyfe

      That is a good point of closing the roads, especially on weekends. This was a Sunday and so many people was out and about enjoying the day. Thanks for stopping by👍🏾

    Hsitorys a lie, you're looking at old world structures. That mountain is no mountain either, its a building at one time. The rock walls.. was all brick, you can still see some if you look. Great video glad i seen

    Stumbled on the town five years ago when my best friend and I made a "zip line" run in the area. I was absolutely delighted to find such a treasure! Its actually a stop for hikers on the Appalachian trail, and I got to talk to a hiker just coming off for a break, he started at the farthest northern point! I really want to go back...

    • @venturelyfe

      None o you realize what you're looking at. Old wolrd. Mudflood. This town is full of it. Melted brick buildings and walls.

      I guess that depends on what you’re looking for.
