Cannon atop Kennesaw Mountain

The northern half of Kennesaw Mountain National Battlefield Park is where Kennesaw Mountain is located, and the original park was comprised only of this area when it was created in 1917. Artillery exhibits and interpretive (information) signage are located at the top of Kennesaw Mountain, at the base and top of Little Kennesaw Mountain, and at Pigeon Hill. Those hiking up the mountain and continuing on to the Pigeon Hill area will come across all exhibits. Those driving can get fairly close to the Kennesaw Mountain top exhibits, can see Little Kennesaw Mountain from a pullout along the road, and will have a 5-10 minute hike to Pigeon Hill from the Pigeon Hill parking lot. The Fort McBride site at the top of Little Kennesaw Mountain is accessible by foot only.
