Trappe, like the rest of this area of the country experiences four distinct seasons, winter blankets the region in a quilt of snow, crisscrossed by the imprints of skis, spring brings mud, mud and more mud as snow melts. But it also brings green buds and a welcome warmth to the sun. Summer comes none too soon with hot, humid weather, where kids are happy to find a sprinkler to play under; and fall brings with it a host of wonderful outdoor activities from apple picking to taste testing the latest cider.

Trappe is a great, thriving community, with a terrific education system, and many wonderful people just waiting for more people to experience their lovely city. Trappe has it all for you - Valley Forge is renowned for its beauty, and Trappe epitomizes it all perfectly!
