The table above shows stats and details for all C&O Canal Byways routes. Click on a column header to sort the table. More info about each column:

Route — Click on the route name to view the route in a new tab
Type — A brief description of the type of route: bikepacking (multi-day route), day ride (shorter loop intersecting C&O), connection (one-way route to C&O), or detour (one-way route along C&O)
Distance — The total distance in miles as reported by RWGPS (typically very accurate)
Climbing — The total elevation gain in feet as reported by RWGPS (typically fairly accurate, but may slightly underestimate actual elevation gain)
Unpaved — The percent of the route (by distance, not riding time) that is unpaved; the difficulty and tire width columns reflect how rough/steep/technical any unpaved sections are
Difficulty — An estimate of difficulty on a scale of 1 (easiest) to 10 (most challenging)
Tire Width — A recommended tire width for most riders (the wider end of the range is better for most riders, but skilled riders can go slightly narrower than the minimum recommended width)
C&O Mile — The C&O mile marker the route intersects (between mile 0 in Washington, DC and mile 184 in Cumberland, MD)
