Valley Forge is a lush, 3,600-acre expanse of rolling hillsides dotted with flowering dogwood trees. Washington's original stone headquarters has been restored and furnished, and statues and monuments throughout the park remind visitors of our national heritage. Among them are the Memorial Arch; statues of General "Mad Anthony" Wayne and Baron Friedrich von Steuben; and the Monument to Patriots of African Descent.
 
 
VALLEY FORGE AREA
 

The focal point of Valley Forge attractions is the 3,600-acre Valley Forge National Historical Park. It was here that General George Washington forged his continental army into a fighting force in the winter of 1777-1778.

Recreational facilities in the park include designated picnic areas, a six-mile multi-use trail, ten miles of horse trails and a Valley Forge-to-Philadelphia bike path.
