About an hour south of Ocean City on the south western edge of Assateague lies the sleepy little community of Chinocteague and Chinocteague National Wildlife Refuge. Each summer the Firemen of Chincoteague hold their annual pony pinning, where ponies rounded up on Assateague and made to swim across the channel to Chincoteague for auction. The Wildlife Refuge has a lighthouse you can climb to the top of and bike trails through out the park. Ride along a see a wide variety of wildlife in their natural surroundings. |
