Washington’s Trail—1753 National Historic Trail Feasibility Study Act of 2023
This bill authorizes a feasibility study to determine if a historical route taken by George Washington in 1753 - stretching approximately 500 miles from Williamsburg, Virginia, to Waterford, Pennsylvania - could qualify as a National Historic Trail. The study, mandated under the National Trails System Act, would assess the route's historical significance and suitability for designation without committing to trail creation or funding.
