Announces Temporary Tour Road Closure June 20, 2022

The tour road at Pea Ridge National Military Park will be closed for one day, beginning the week of June 20, 2022, for the removal and replacement of a section of tour road. This is a part of a larger ongoing project within the park to replace and expand the current parking lots at the visitor center. This closure will mean that no vehicles or bicycles will be allowed to drive the seven-mile tour road and the park equestrian trail will be closed for the day as well. Visitors travelling to the park that week are encouraged to call the park or check our Facebook page ahead of time to verify that the tour road is open. The date of actual removal is dependent upon the weather and will hopefully occur between Monday and Wednesday, June 20-22.Pea Ridge National Military Park preserves and commemorates the March 7-8, 1862, battle that helped Union forces maintain physical and political control of the state of Missouri. Administered by the National Park Service, the 4,300-acre battlefield is located 10 miles north of Rogers, just off US Highway 62.
