How far is it from Harpers Ferry to Brunswick and back? What is a reasonable hiking distance per day on the canal for a non-hiker?

oops see comment above. I just spent 4 hours cutting overgrown grass and I am spent. I could do a 5 hour hike though.

Brunswick is right on the path and it was a quick little hill to the best coffee and pie on the entire trail. Beans in the Belfry was a great spot to have a bite. Very popular with cyclists. The visitor center rail museum across has very limited hours and was closed, of course. But we were glad we stopped to listen to jazz and have a bite.
