This route includes three significant climbs to three popular overlooks with small amounts of flat connecting each. The route begins at the River Access Parking Lot in Harpers Ferry, WV. Runners will turn left from the parking lot, following the sidewalk across the Shenandoah River. The sidewalk ends at the staircase that leads down to the trail.  This section is all part of the AT, and runners should follow white blazes until the trail splits to the Loudoun Heights trail (blue blaze) to the left. The trail ends at the overlook.
