What are your MUST-SEE side trips/attractions along the trail? Already planning on visiting Fallingwater, but looking for some other suggestions. Thanks!

Near falling water is Ohioplyle. There is a natural waterslide in the area to cool off. Harpers Ferry has historic civil war buildings and many points of interest.
Frederick Fort East of Hancock is right off the trail. An old Revolutionary fort.
Great Falls has many well built hiking trails for short hikes.
