Spectacular scenery and history. We love VFP!
This is the perfect spot in all of Valley Forge National Park to simply read a book, take a nap or just sit back and listen to nature. There is a wooden platform for you to walk out on to read the historical displays, take pictures of the iron cannons or just to take pictures of the landscape. Personally I like to park here, roll down the windows in my car, recline my seat and just read a book. There is a picnic area immediately downhill from this location. Plus there is a walking trail opposite from the wooden platform that will take you back uphill through the woods. If you plan on doing what I like to do which is parking here to read a book or even to take a nap I believe that the best time of the year to do that is in the fall because by that time none of the little bugs and spiders are out there that would otherwise annoy you while you're trying to lay back and relax.
Impressive view!
Nice park with historical significance.
Good place to park for Mt Joy trail
