A Note about "Official" W3R Routes

In 2010 the National Park Service published a limited number of spiral-bound booklets containing nine, full-color, 6" by 9.5" maps that show enough detail to see what towns and modern roads are near the W3R-NHT network of paths taken by the allied armies in 1781.. To make these maps more accessible to the public we have posted them on the W3R-US Website as 200 DPI TIFF files. You may download and print them for personal use.

In May 2011 the National Park Service created a series of GoogleMaps showing draft auto tour routes along the W3R-NHT. To make these maps more accessible to the public we have posted below links to those maps. These are draft maps for discussion as we move toward development of a final route. At present only a small portion of the route has wayfinding signs and interpretive markers. MA RI CT NY NJ Corridor 1 NJ Corridor 2 PA DE MD MD-DC-VA VA
