Getting Around

The entrance gate to the Monument requires a short walk of less than one quarter mile or 275 meters from the city parking facilities on James Street. For those touring the area by bicycle, a bicycle rack can be found at the entrance gate. The Monument has 3 short trails that encircle the fort. One of the trails follows a portion of the Oneida Carrying Place. The other two trails interpret the events of the siege of 1777. Park rangers conduct regularly scheduled interpretive programs daily, averaging 45 minutes long. Check with the ranger on duty in the Gregg Barracks Visitor Center for times and locations of all programs offered that day.
