Heritage, Harvest & Horse Festival

Surrounded by magnificent autumn backdrops of the Adirondacks and the Green Mountains, join Fort Ticonderoga for a full day of autumn family fun!

Guests are invited to discover the historical importance of horses and other working animals during exciting demonstrations, meet our friendly oxen duo, stroll through Fort Ticonderoga’s farmers’ market featuring local food, beverages, and crafts, participate in family fun activities, and tackle the six-acre Heroic Corn Maze. This fall favorite event, combined with daily Fort Ticonderoga programs, makes for a great annual family tradition.
