The Saratoga National Historical Park 9 miles south of Saratoga, New York, includes the battlefield, a visitor center, the restored country house of American General Philip Schuyler, a monument, and Victory Woods where the British surrendered on October 17, 1777.

Would like to get there sometime. How far is it from Eastern PA?

See Saratoga National Historical Park for directions info and then use Google or Yahoo maps to calculate the trip.

But before you go, read Saratoga: Turning Point of America's Revolutionary War by Richard M. Ketchum if you haven't already done so.

It's pretty much on the NY eastern border.

Well, it’s about 165 miles straight north of NYC with interstate all the way; from eastern PA, either the NJ Turnpike up or I-81. Definitely worth a trip...esp. in the fall.
