Valley Forge National Historical Park commemorates the site of the Continental Army's third winter encampment, which lasted between December of 1777 and June of 1778. Since 1976, the site has been protected as a national historical park, stretching across 3,500 acres throughout the Valley Forge area. Recreated historic encampment structures are showcased alongside monuments honoring Continental soldiers across the nation. A visitor center and museum highlight exhibits of Revolutionary War-era artifacts and provide an overview of the timeline of the American Revolution. Ranger-led programming is offered seasonally, including walking and trolley tours of the site. 26 miles of hiking and biking trails traverse the site, connecting to boating and fishing areas on the Schuylkill River.
