Experienced Civil War historians and travelers marvel at this wonderfully preserved site. The chimney stones have fallen in place from the Confederate huts and the scenery is breathtaking. The national forest provides some interpretation. Some of the area is privately owned. Watch out for the road in wet weather and it's very cold in winter.
Earthworks are still visible from parking area here.
This battle pretty much settled the question of military control over the western Virginia mountains. The Association for the Preservation of Civil War Sites and a very active foundation has preserved key areas of the battlefield. A visitor center is located in Beverly, a block east of US 250 - turn on Court Street in Beverly. Donations are welcome. The battlefield itself is about five miles west of town.
