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. Frederick Douglass traveled by train across the peninsula in 1838 on his way to Wilmington, Philadelphia and freedom in New York (and his fiance Anna Murray may have as well). Native Americans of the area, including the Nanticoke and Lenni Lenape, hunted and fished, as well as established semi-permanent camps.
Elk Neck State Park includes the southern tip of the peninsula, bounded by the North East River, Elk River, as well as the Chesapeake Bay. State route 272 ends at the point of the peninsula, with the famous Turkey Point Light. Much of the peninsula’s land is legally protected from development, either as part of the state park or as part of Elk Neck State Forest. Deep forests, bluffs, beaches and marshlands are the primary natural features of the park’s landscape.
