Cycling

The Mason-Dixon Line Monument marks the historic boundary between the states of Maryland and Pennsylvania. Today, it is a scenic rest stop for hikers, featuring a granite obelisk, engraved blocks spelling "Mason & Dixon," and a replica of the surveyors' 66-foot chain. It is a great photo opportunity and Easily a must-see for history buffs.

Hiking

This marker stands on the Mason-Dixon Line. Originally part of the border between Maryland and Pennsylvania and a dividing line between the slave states to the south and the anti-slavery states to the north, this line is still widely acknowledged as a roughly accurate boundary between the northern and southern portions of the United States.
