Description

The Hatcher's Run Battlefield trail is a 1.39-mile trail, which follows the movements of the Union Army's sixth and seventh offensive at Petersburg. The trail is at the heart of both of those engagements and offers some of the best preserved field fortifications in the country.

Please allow 1 hour for a hike over mostly level terrain.
