Vicksburg National Military Park (Vicksburg, USA)
Vicksburg National Military Park is located in Vicksburg, Mississippi on bluffs overlooking the Mississippi River. The total area of the battle is not a part of the park, however the vast majority of the battle site is included. A sixteen mile tour road parallels Union and Confederate siege lines, with three interconnecting roadways, fifteen tour stops, wayside markers and exhibits, short spur trails to points of interest, one primitive twelve mile compass scout trail, and 7 and 14 mile hikes that follow the park tour road. These features allow the visitor to take a view from both sides of the battle, to see what was facing both sides in the conflict. It is possible to drive, take a tour bus, hike or bicycle in the park. Be aware that this area is prone to be humid and the terrain in the park has some steep hills. If one is planning to bike or hike, these conditions should be taken into consideration. Facilities include the USS Cairo Museum, rest rooms, picnic tables and a bookstore. The Visitor Centre is open daily from 08h00 to 17h00 and both bus and handicapped parking is available.
