Western Maryland Rails to Trails now runs for 21 miles along the C and O Canal between Big Pool and Polly Pond. It is a macadam path built on the old B and O railroad line. 

The section of trail between Big Pool just west of Ft Frederick and Hancock is an easy day bike trip with several restaurants in Hancock making the trip very "full feeling".

Long L Ranch longlranch.com offers four hour unaccompanied trail rides on the C and O Canal. The ranch is about three miles away.
