 The Great Allegheny Passage, aka the GAP Trail, is a 150-mile rail trail that travels from the end of the C&O Canal in Cumberland, MD, to Point State Park, at Three Rivers in Pittsburgh, PA.
The *only* climb is from 1750 ft. in 22 miles, from Cumberland to Savage Mountain, on the Mason-Dixon Line. (Not quite the Alpe d'Huez ...) From there, it's downhill to Connellsville, PA, and basically level the rest of the way. The opposite direction, the "climb" is 900 ft. in 75 miles -- which hardly counts.
