Your Maps App Maybe Confused

Fort Necessity and Friendship Hill share a headquarters. Occasionally, GPS will tell you that the two sites are only a mile or so apart, or across the road from each other. They are not. There are actually 27 miles between the two sites, which is a 35 to 40 minute drive.

If you are coming to Friendship Hill from Fort Necessity, or vice versa, ask a ranger for turn by turn directions to ensure you don't get lost! Some GPS apps will tell you the entrance isn't at 223 exactly, but you will find our entrance nearby.

The Gallatin House and our Visitor Center are open 9 AM to 5 PM, if open. May 1st to September 30, the house is open every day. October 1st to April 30th, check our fall/winter hours. Grounds are open sunrise to sunset every day.
