The Harpers Ferry AYH-Hostel
American Youth Hostels

Note:   HikaNation participants of the May-1981-100K rested at this hostel after the 100k. This is an update on the facilities obtained from the American Hiker Autumn 1989 magazine below.

"The Harpers Ferry AYH-Hostel is just across the river from Harpers Ferry in Knoxville, Maryland, and just a quarter-mile from the AT. The recently renovated hostel has a fully equipped kitchen, laundry facilities, and fireplace. A large outdoor area is available for camp fires and recreational activities."
