Harpers Ferry National Historical Park, originally Harpers Ferry National Monument, is located at the confluence of the Potomac and Shenandoah rivers in and around Harpers Ferry, West Virginia.

The busses were running so i believe it must be open. If we can we skip it we do and park in town as there is visitor info in one of the buildings. The gift shop went down hill in trinkets and kids stuff and uphill with books. Not my cup of tea sorry I cant help you there.
I'm not sure, but the park has a very informative website so they may say on there. At least it would have a number to call or email to send the question.
Wandering if anyone’s been there recently who can tell me what the leaves are looking like? I love photography and was hoping to catch some colorful shots.
