Ride alongside a live Licensed Battlefield Guide who will share fascinating details and stories about the soldiers, the strategies, and the events that shaped the outcome of the greatest Civil War battle.

Your route begins behind the Virginia Monument, where General Robert E. Lee awaited his troops after Pickett’s Charge. Follow the trail to the Spangler Farm, enjoy sweeping views of the Peach Orchard, and spot Little Round Top in the distance. Cross the Emmitsburg Road onto the Union side of the battle to see the Trostle Farm.
Along the way, you will ride on an authentic Civil War mode of transportation and gain a new appreciation for how the terrain influenced the battle. Outriders will accompany you at all times for your safety, ensuring a secure and memorable experience.
