Elk Neck Peninsula

Elk Neck Peninsula is in Cecil County, Maryland, between the towns of Elkton and North East, Maryland. Native American and colonial travelers often canoed or sailed up the Chesapeake Bay to Elkton, where the Elk River became unnavigable, and then walked or took some form of surface transportation to the Delaware Bay watershed, since this was the shortest surface crossing. The Mason-Dixon Line crosses the peninsula, as did the Underground Railroad.

Located at 39.4993, -75.967 (Lat. / Lng.), about 1 miles away.
