Summary

The main street of downtown Boonsboro on the historic National Road, or Alternate Rt. 40, at the foot of South Mountain. Founded in 1792 by George and William Boone, cousins of Daniel Boone, Boonsboro forms a gateway to colonial and Civil War heritage sites including the National Road, Washington Monument State Park, South Mountain and Antietam National Battlefield. See the directional sign for Antietam Battlefield on the right.

Similar to Brunswick, the C&O Canal Towpath and Harpers Ferry Historical Park are only minutes away, and the proximity to the Appalachian Trail makes Boonsboro a welcome respite for hikers.
