A peaceful rails-to-trails corridor following the historic B&O Old Main Line through rolling Maryland countryside and Mount Airy town. Photograph long leading lines of the trail, stone culverts and bridges, tree tunnels (spectacular in fall), and small-town streetscapes. Best at golden hour for warm side light and long shadows; early weekdays minimize walkers and cyclists. Easy access from 3 N Main St with street parking and trailheads; mostly level and easy to hike with gear.
