Inside Valley Forge Park

Use this unofficial guide to enjoy the best that Valley Forge Park has to offer. This wiki is provided by a local resident, not by the National Park Service. I have no affiliation with the park other than using it every day. So if the information is incorrect, blame human error.

What You'll Find Here:

1. Hiking Trails and difficulty ratings

2. Places to Stay

3. Places to Eat

4. Foliage Reports (totally from my personal observances)

5. Birding Reports (from my better half's opinions)

6. Favorite Photos

Special Notes

When visiting Valley Forge Park, keep these things in mind:

• Deer ticks are abundant! Always, and I do mean always, wear repellant! 

• Remember - they may not run, but the animals are still wild. Don't touch or approach deer or any other animal.

• Check out the What to Bring page.

• Don't be the cause of a traffic jam - Rte. 23 runs through Valley Forge Park. It's the only way for many of the suburban residents to get to and fro. Sightseeing is great, but please - don't stop in the middle of the freaking highway to take photos or read a marker. Pull into a parking area and enjoy a leisurely (and much safer) stroll to the points of interest. Locals have lead feet and cell phones attached to their ears - don't count on anyone to see or pay enough attention to avoid you.
