While there are dozens of state parks in Maryland, sometimes it’s the little known ones that have the most unique attributes. The following park is a must-visit for its history and scenic views. Check it out:
Located in Grantsville, Casselman River Bridge State Park is a picturesque spot located along Casselman River.
While it offers basic park amenities, it's most known for being home to the historic Casselman River Bridge.
Constructed in 1813, this stone bridge was an important part of the National Road, with continuous traffic until 1933. While it's no longer open to vehicles, visitors can feel free to stroll along the bridge and take in its beauty.
The park is open year-round but is most picturesque in the spring as wildflowers are in full bloom...
Or during autumn when the foliage is at its peak.
It's easy to spend the day here, as the park also includes charming spots for picnics...
And fishing opportunities.
It's a unique spot that every Marylander should visit at least once.
