This past weekend, we decided to visit Gambrill State Park, which was new to both of us. It's only half an hour away, and I wasn't sure what to expect.
It turned out to be quite a nice park. The southern portion has a lot of scenic vistas (even more in winter, when the leaves are off the trees), and many of the trails are lined with laurel. It's probably a good place to visit when the laurel is in bloom.
It was also heavily used, with some parking lots filled to capacity. So get there early or be willing to choose a less popular lot.
I hike five miles, and T slightly less. There were a several surprisingly steep hills, but the trails were in good shape.
