WOLF DEN RUN STATE PARK

North Hill Road, Kitzmiller

Managed jointly by Swallow Falls and Herrington Manor State Parks, Wolf Den Run State Park is the first Off Road Vehicle (ORV) state park in Maryland. The property comprises three distinct areas, including the Huckleberry Rocks Area, North Hill Area and the Potomac River Area. These areas combine to include 2000+ acres of mixed forest, three miles of River frontage on the North Branch of the Potomac River, three native brook trout streams and unique rocky bluffs rising 900 feet above the Potomac River.

All three areas also include rugged mountainous terrain with numerous ephemeral streams, meadows, small tributaries and wetlands. All three parcels are open for ORV riding with approximately 50 miles of trails to enjoy on the combined parcels. Passive recreational opportunities such as hiking, biking, fishing and birding are also welcome.
