Activity itinerary

Gettysburg National Military Park Museum & Visitor Center

Begin your journey at the main visitor centre. Explore exhibits, the museum, and the famous Cyclorama painting before heading out onto the battlefield.

Spangler's Spring

A peaceful spring with a powerful storey—on the night of July 2nd, Union and Confederate soldiers silently gathered here together to fill canteens, only to return to fighting the next morning.

Culp's Hill

The Union Army’s right flank and one of the most important defensive positions of the battle. Soldiers built breastworks here that helped hold off repeated Confederate attacks.

Culp's Hill Observation Tower

Climb the tower for sweeping views of the battlefield and a better understanding of how the Union defensive line was formed.

Major General Henry Warner Slocum Monument

Honours General Henry Slocum, whose decision to move his troops forward without orders helped secure this critical ground and ultimately contributed to Union victory.

Gettysburg Battlefield: Lee’s Headquarters (Pass by)

Visit the modest stone house where Confederate General Robert E. Lee made key decisions that shaped the outcome of the battle.

Brigadier General John Buford Statue

These monuments mark where Union cavalry held the line long enough for reinforcements to arrive—buying crucial time on the first day of battle.

John Burns Memorial

Dedicated to the only civilian to fight in the battle—a 69-year-old local who joined Union soldiers and became a national legend.

The Eternal Light Peace Memorial

A powerful symbol of reconciliation, dedicated in 1938 by President Franklin D. Roosevelt to honour both Union and Confederate soldiers.

Oak Ridge Observation Tower

Climb for a panoramic view of the first day’s battlefield, where the Union line was pushed back through Gettysburg.

Seminary Ridge Museum and Education Center (Pass by)

Stand where Confederate forces held their line and where General Lee directed the battle, including the lead-up to Pickett’s Charge.

Little Round Top

One of the most famous sites of the battle. This hill was desperately defended in a last stand that saved the Union Army’s left flank.

Devil's Den

A rugged, boulder-filled landscape that saw intense fighting and is now known for both its history and its eerie, haunted reputation.

State of Pennsylvania Monument

The largest monument on the battlefield, honouring over 34,000 Pennsylvania soldiers who fought at Gettysburg.

High Water Mark of the Rebellion Monument

The farthest point reached by Confederate forces during Pickett’s Charge—often considered the turning point of the entire Civil War.
