patapsco valley state park catonsville, maryland okay... not really. it actually stretches between bwi airport, arbutus, elkridge, ellicott city, and up to sykesville. located in the suburbs of baltimore, this giant state park makes for great hiking, horseback riding, picnicing, fishing, canoeing, kayaking, and camping, and mountain biking known to be quite technical at parts (but not so much as gambrill), there's a load of trails running through the park.   welcome to patapsco valley state park one of the stream crossings on the ride in from rt 166   most of the biking trails are in the avalon/orange grove areas (camping, picnicing, kayaking, and canoeing are in other sectors of the park). parts of the park are extremely hilly, muddy, and wet, making for some awesome rides. department of natural resources web site: patapsco valley state park A google earth file for Patapsco. the swinging bridge that crosses the patapsco river   a map of the park, click for a larger view the entrance along rt 166 is across from the park and ride   have fun, just don't get shot...
