Directions from Frederick/Baltimore/DC:
Take Route 15 North towards Gettysburg and Thurmont (from Washington, I-270, this is not truly an exit; continue straight on I-270, which blends into 15 North). Thurmont is about 15 miles northwest of Frederick.
Due to road closure of Rt. 77….
Take the U-turn from 15 South and then turn right on Catoctin Hollow Road. Due to the closure, traffic coming down the road can be heavier than normal and some drive too fast. Just take your time at the sharper turns.
At Mink Farm Road the first road you will come to, turn left.
Continue on Mink Farm Road for 1.1 miles. While on Mink Farm Road, you will cross a small stream and then go up a steep hill, road will level out for a short distance, then there will be a slight uphill section and then the road will begin to descend. At the bottom of this short descent, the road crosses a stream and goes from paved to gravel. After traveling 200 feet on the gravel, you will see a lane on the left, marked by a carved wooden “ThorpeWood” sign. Turn LEFT into this lane and in about 150 feet when the driveway divides.
