Battlefield map shows Tour Stops (click to enlarge)
Visitors can tour the Horseshoe Bend Battlefield along a 3-mile park road that leads to five important stops plus a battlefield overlook pavilion. The tour can be done in a vehicle, on a bike, or on foot—in a vehicle it can be completed in no more than an hour. The tour road is the only way to see all of the tour stops. The Nature Trail, the park’s only hiking trail, also covers the grounds, but only goes past Stops #2 and #4.
The gates to the park open at 8 AM and close at 5 PM. The tour road is within the gated area, so be sure to complete your tour and exit the park by closing time. The park is closed on Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year’s Day.
National Park Planner presents a virtual tour of the Horseshoe Bend Battlefield starting with a stop at the Battlefield Overlook. At the bottom of each tour stop web page is a navigation menu that takes you to the next or previous tour stop.
