Parking

Find the right place to park your car for your day trip, overnight, or thru-trip on the Great Allegheny Passage or adjacent C&O Canal Towpath. There is parking in every trail town and canal town, but overnight parking is limited to certain locations, and you’ll likely pay for parking in Downtown Pittsburgh, on Pittsburgh’s South Side, and in Georgetown (or anywhere around Washington, D.C.), whether you’re parking for the day or overnight.
