Valley Forge National Historical Park
Getting Around
 

Most visitors to Valley Forge Park travel by car, tour bus, or school bus. Nine of the park's most significant historical sites are outlined along a 10-mile driving tour loop called The Encampment Tour. An 8.7-mile paved multi-use trail parallels most of the driving tour and accomodates walkers, bike riders, and equestirans. During the summer season you can take advantage of our shuttle system, or you may like a guided tour of the park on the Trolley.
