Harpers Ferry National Historical Park

Where the Potomac and Shenandoah Rivers meet, you’ll find Harpers Ferry – equal parts national park and living museum. History buffs can explore Bolivar Heights, one of West Virginia’s most important Civil War battlefields, or tour John Brown’s Fort, where the famed abolitionist made his last stand. Prefer a little action with your history? You can also hike, rock climb, or simply stroll through the cobblestone streets of town with views of the Blue Ridge Mountains at every turn.
