This is a sacred and hallowed place, dedicated to the 23,000 plus soldiers that fought at Pea Ridge on March 7th and 8th, 1862 during the civil war. With thousands killed and wounded in the battle, the battlefield has been preserved as a National Military Park and is one of the best-preserved civil war battlefields. There is a visitor centre on site and trails around the battlefield.

The park is open from 6 a.m. to sunset, 7 days a week, even on holidays.
