Hoye-Crest is a summit along Backbone Mountain just inside of Garrett County, Maryland.

It is the highest natural point in Maryland at an elevation of 3,360 feet (1,020 m).

[3] The location, named for Captain Charles E. Hoye (1876–1951), founder of the Garrett County Historical Society, offers a view of the North Branch Potomac River valley to the east.

The trail ascends Backbone Mountain along an old logging road on Monongahela National Forest property to the West Virginia-Maryland state line.

The trail then heads north along the state line to the high point.
