Come for a unique, extended tour of one of the Hudson Valley’s most dramatic battle sites!
Drawing mainly on first-hand accounts and archaeological data, this ramble will bring to life the
Revolutionary War attack on Fort Montgomery using the words of the soldiers who were there and what they left behind. Program will last approximately 2 hours and include rarely visited spots of the battlefield and conclude with a musket firing demonstration. The Ramble will mostly visit sites on the west side of 9W, the route the Crown Forces marched from and the areas where they formed up for the attack. Or just ramble around the visitor center and archaeological ruins on the east side of 9W overlooking the Hudson River and Bear Mountain Bridge while others are walking.
