An excellent spot to spend an hour or two whilst re-tracing George Washington's footsteps. A visitor center provides plenty of interactive, educational exhibits. Come see period artifacts, reenactments, and short documentary films describing life for members of the continental army who camped near Morristown.

It's a really great place to go hiking. There are 1, 2, and 6 mile hikes. The smell of fresh air is amazing.

Oh boy is this place a wonder! It's a piece of history tucked in between highways. It is very much worth the drive to get here. My love and I weren't able to make the house tour, but that allowed us to spend more time in the museum. This place is an absolute treasure trove of primary resources from that era!! You can tell when visiting that a lot of love went into the curation of the museum. When you visit, make sure you have enough time for the museum, tour, and to walk the grounds a bit. More than worth it!!

Historically important, and full of amazing details - Morristown is General Washington's winter encampment location. He stayed at the Ford Mansion - which was lovingly preserved - during the winter months of 1779. There we saw how the Ford family lived along with Washington and his men (and eventually, his wife Martha). Down the road was Jockey Hollow where the Continental Army encamped over the winter. Up a nearby hill is the footprint of Fort Nonsense - which has an amazing overlook. All in all, we had a lovely day visiting the mansion, museum, and fields in Morristown, NJ. Despite the rain!

I spend a lot of time in Jockey Hollow. The rich history of this place is a good enough reason on its own to visit. I usually go trail running on the various trails which are all very well maintained. It can get busy at peak times but even then the magic of this place never fails to disappoint. Check out the soldier cabins and the main rotunda if you are a history buff. If it’s too cold, taking a drive around the loop isn’t a bad way to spend a few minutes either.
