Assateague State Park: The Park In Maryland Where You Can Watch Wild Horses Roam Free

If you’re a lover of animals like I am, then you’ll agree that spotting wildlife can enhance most outdoor adventures. The following park in Maryland is already naturally beautiful, but it’s the wild horses that take this place to the next level.

Assateague State Park is an eastern shore gem. While most head to the eastern shore in the summertime for Ocean City, this place should also be a must-visit stop along the way.

Not only does it offer gorgeous views of the Atlantic Ocean...

...but it's also an enchanting spot where wild horses roam.

Sometimes you'll spot the horses in the distance, beautifully grazing away...

...and other times they'll be meandering the beach like they're one of the humans.

Those who'd like to stay longer at Assateague State Park can certainly do so, as this place offers unique campsites.

Just be sure not to touch or feed the animals, no matter how close they may get.
