ELK NECK STATE FOREST
Elk Neck State Forest and Park's sandy beaches, marshlands, and heavily wooded bluffs are contained within a peninsula formed by the North East River, Elk River and the Chesapeake Bay. This Chesapeake Bay Gateway site provides excellent trail recreation for hiking and mountain biking throughout more than 2,000 acres of scenic woodlands. An easy walk to the Bay's highest lighthouse, Turkey Point, provides splendid views of the Elk River and the Chesapeake Bay.
