Pea Ridge National Military Park

Pea Ridge National Military Park

Pea Ridge is the site of one of the most important battles of the American Civil War. Not only does it offer an outstanding 28 minute film about the battle but Pea Ridge is one of the most intact Civil War battlefields in existence. Inside the Visitor Center you will find a theater, bookstore and small museum. Outside you will find a 7 mile - 10 stop tour road, 9 mile horse trail and 7 mile hiking trail. For those that enjoy nature, there are plenty of opportunities to see wildlife, beautiful forest and a chance to get a way from the pressures of the modern world.
