| Passing through Confluence is the Great Allegheny Passage bike trail, part of a 335-mile continuous non-motorized corridor from near Pittsburgh to Washington, DC. For dozens of miles, it parallels the abandoned Western Maryland main line along the Youghiogheny River. The Great Allegheny Passage is part of the larger Potomac Heritage National Scenic Trail (PHNST) corridor, one of only 11 so designated in the country. PHNST is a network of trails between the Chesapeake Bay and the Ohio River. |
