While planning your trip keep a few things in mind:

We are a day use Battlefield and all parking areas are posted with designated parking hours.

Make sure you know how long it will take you to hike or tour the grounds before you start. Ask a ranger for assistance if you have questions.

Make sure you plan to enjoy your trip and take in as much as you can of the Battlefield and the surrounding areas.

If you're looking for lunch and dinner places, we do not offer anything in the park but the Marietta square is down the street and full of many choices. There's Barrett Parkway which has a little something for everyone and downtown Kennesaw is a short drive away.
On a beautiful fall day, the colors of the trees make the deadliest part of Kennesaw Mountain battle look serene.  

Did You Know?
In the spring and summer of 1864, some of the most important events to effect the outcome of the Civil War occurred in North Georgia. Kennesaw Mountain Battlefield commemorates these events, as well as preserving the battleground of Kennesaw Mountain. The Mountain's history precedes the Civil War.
