Great Valley

Welcome to Great Valley

Great Valley is a west-to-east valley through the center of Chester County, Pennsylvania, USA. It is also sometimes referred to as Chester Valley, and both names are in use throughout the region. The valley stretches from the Schuylkill River in Montgomery County in the east, southwesterly through Chester and Lancaster counties. The valley is most distinct in central Chester County, although traces of it can be followed almost the entire distance between the Delaware and Susquehanna rivers.

Valley Creek flows along the base of eastern Great Valley, towards the Schuylkill River. A second creek, also named Valley Creek, flows westward from Frazer into the East Branch Brandywine Creek. Beaver Creek flows eastward along the northern side of the valley from around Thorndale into the East Branch Brandywine Creek. Multiple branches of both the Brandywine and Octoraro creeks cross the valley.

Communities

Significant communities in the Great Valley include, from east to west, King of Prussia, Valley Forge, Chesterbrook, Exton, Downingtown, Thorndale, Coatesville, Parkesburg, and Atglen.

Transportation

Both the Pennsylvania Turnpike and US 202 follow the eastern portion of the valley. U.S. Route 30 enters the valley around Malvern and serves as the main thoroughfare in the valley as far west as Coatesville, where PA 372 becomes the main road along the valley to its western end. The Great Valley is also served by Amtrak and SEPTA rail service for much of its length.

This Great Valley is near and parallel to, but distinct from, the Great Appalachian Valley.
