Tour the Heritage Area

Tennessee Civil War Trails

A great way to tour the Heritage Area is to follow the Tennessee Civil War Trails! This historic marker program identifies and interprets both the great campaigns as well as the state's lesser-known Civil War places. The Trail includes interpretive markers and an online statewide driving tour, and links Tennessee's sites to Trails programs in Virginia, West Virginia, Maryland and North Carolina. To follow the Trail, click here.


For more information on visiting additional Civil War sites included in this unique partnership between the Tennessee Department of Tourist Development and the Heritage Area, please visit the Tennessee Department of Tourist Development at www.tnvacation.com.
