Guilford Courthouse National Military Park, located in Greensboro, North Carolina, preserves the site of a pivotal Revolutionary War battle fought on March 15, 1781.

The park features monuments, interpretive trails, and a visitor center with exhibits on the Southern Campaign. For cyclists, the park has a 2.25-mile auto tour loop that's bike-friendly, winding through wooded terrain and past key battle landmarks. It’s a peaceful ride with gentle grades and plenty of historical stops to explore along the way.
