Park Interpreter at the Visitor Centre desk was very knowledgeable and helpful with advice on how we could best experience the park. We did a walking tour on our own at our own pace and it was very very interesting and educational. We especially enjoyed the short 6 minute talk in the museum about the battle. We learned so much more even more than we learned from history books just by seeing the actual battlefield, well worth the visit!!

Manassas National Battlefield Park is an excellent starting point for anyone who is interested in learning about the history of the Civil War. This is where it all began. Located at 6511 Sudley Road, at the intersection of Route 29 or Lee Highway and Route 234 or Sudley Road, north of I-66 and Manassass, Virginia, 30 miles west/southwest of Washington, D.C., it is the site of two major battles of the Civil War--the First Battle of Bull Run or Manassas and the Second Battle of Bull Run or Manassas. The FIrst Battle, which occurred on July 21, 1861, was the first major battle of the Civil War and is where Confederate General Thomas J. Jackson acquired his famous nickname "Stonewall." The 5,073-acre park was established in 1936 and listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1966. More than 700,000 people visit the two battlefields each year. Start at the Henry Hill Visitor Center on Sudley Road by the south entrance to the park, overlooking the 1861 battlefield. It offers exhibits regarding the First Battle of Bull Run, including Civil War-era uniforms, weapons, field gear, an electronic battle map and an orientation film entitled "Manassas: End of Innocence," and an extensive bookstore stocked with Civil War-related books and memorabilia. The site of the First Battle of Bull Run is small enough that you can walk from start to finish. Also see Stone House, used as a hospital for both battles, Robinson House, Stonewall Jackson Monument, Hill Farmhouse and Chinn Ridge.

Very much enjoyed this - smaller and more cozy than Gettysburg and less crowded. I really enjoyed Stone Bridge and taking pictures there.

A pivotal battle site from the Civil War, this place is large, just like the battle area was. If you don't have a lot of time, or cannot do a lot of walking, you can still stop in at the visitors center, walk a few yards to the Stonewall Jackson statue, and take in the view of a nearby farmhouse that got caught in the battle, as well as lots of cannons. It's ironic that visiting here is serene, and yet, over a hundred fifty years ago this was a killing field.
If you are a history buff, or a Civil war buff, do not miss this place if you are in the vicinity. It has a lot to offer for either. Even if you are neither of those two, it is a beautiful place to go for a walk.

We are a family of hikers and history lovers; this was our only visit to Manassas and the heat index was well into the 90s.
The visitors center has a diorama and short audio off to your right when you walk in, and a longer movie that played the top of each hour in a theater to your left. Get a map from the helpful guides.
We walked the Blue (1st Manassas) counterclockwise. Henry Hill is a Strava segment. The placards/interpretive signage were very good. We then cooled off at the movie. Red trail can be hiked, driven, or both. Our first afternoon we drove to Unfinished Railroad and hiked that, an isolated, Beautiful hiking loop off the Red trail, and Groveton Cemetary. A definite theme was the war taking place on family grounds. Second day we came back to hike Chinn Ridge loop that backs onto the NY (Zouaves) monument, which can be reached by 29 as well. The map needs updated and it would be great to have a shuttle tour as others have suggested.

So - as I generally say how long I've been visiting an attraction - I have been visiting the Manassas National Battlefield/Battlefield Park off and on for 31 years.
Within about a 2 to 4 mile radius there are all kinds of cool things from hiking to various historic markers and monuments.
I like to hike here more in the mornings not long after the sun is up. Though it's important to have a "spider-spotter" with you on hikes further into the forests as they make their webs just below the height of a person's head.
Hikes are cool not only because of the nature that surrounds you though also because you can think about what happened there so many years ago.
Good or bad it is important to remember history - and learn from it.

Visited this famous Civil Ware battlefield yesterday . The main visitors center was very nice and we enjoyed the informative film. The men working at the desk were helpful and the gift shop there was also full of many nice books and gifts for all ages. One thing that was disappointing was the fact that unlike Gettysburg and Antietam the sites are not marked as easily to find doing a driving tour at Manassas. Maybe they should be numbered like the others which would be more helpful for someone driving. Also shuttle tours should be considered after COVID is better under control. Park rangers gave tours and lectures but we didn't stay to hear one, Also at the one house that was brown brick / stone in appearance didn't have railing to get in and out of the house and it should for safety. The statue of Stonewall Jackson was very nice We also enjoyed the older male volunteer at the second visitor center who was a VMI ALUMNI. I would recommend visiting this battlefield site if you are a history lover . I would allow 2- 3 hours for visiting this sight, Great area for taking walks but do it on a cooler day than 91.

Visited late June. Arrived in time to hear the ranger talk at Henry Hill visitors center. I didn't know much about Manassas battles. Found the talk about the first battle very interesting. Visited on a rainy day,so didn't hike area. Notion that people would come out to watch a battle as entertainment something can't understand. Ranger helpful in explaining why hear battles referred to as battles of Bull Run. Second battle occurred around 13 months later. Ranger talk at Brawner farm focused on the second battle. Rain had stopped by time attended the third talk which was Deep Cut walking tour. This talk focused in more detail about the second battle. All the rangers and be a were very enthusiastic and seemed proud of the park. I appreciate their patience in answering questions.

Has anyone done the rail journey from Washington to Manassas?
Do you have to prebook any tours at the park or can you turn up and join on the day?
How far is the train station in Manassas to the battlefield?
Jake B
Charlottesville, VA43 bidrag
The train station is six miles from the battlefield. It's serviced by Amtrak and Virginia Express. Unfortunately the first train from Washington to Manassas doesn't arrive until late afternoon, making a day trip to the battlefield impossible.
You would have to stay overnight in Manassas and return in the morning by commuter train.

Hi, You will need to rent a car or take an Uber, depending on where you stay. Your hotel may have something, but the battlefield is not near the subway. Enjoy! I love this battlefield

Take Amtrak's Cardinal train that runs only on sundays, Wednesdays & Fridays. Should allow for a day trip to Manassas, providing outbound train isn't too delayed out of D.C. Battlefield is six miles from station so a taxi is necessary. suggest going to the Henry Hill Visitor Center where a fair percentage of the action took place.

How long does it take to do the driving tour on a weekend day?
zee1angel
Saint Leonard, MD470 bidrag
For Second Manassas (doesn't include First Manassas), there are 10-11 tour stops with a self-guided audio tour. It really depends on how long you spend at each stop, and whether you hike the trails or not. If you zip through the stops and not going on trail hikes or anything, it probably won't take that long but you will miss out a lot. There is a small interpretive center at the first stop (Brawner Farm). When we were there on Sunday, they had a half an hour presentation, which I thought was very informative. Also there are many trails throughout the battlefield and if you choose to hike some of them, it will probably take all day, or even longer.

I will be staying downtown Washington DC, to get public transport to and from the park looks like a nightmare. Am I worrying about nothing?
Joe J
Virginia406 bidrag
Not necessarily a nightmare, but definitely complex. The Metro rail doesn't come anywhere close to the park, and I've never seen a Metro bus stop near the park's visitor center (I live here, and drive everywhere, so there may be buses that do - I just don't know of any). So, unless you're willing to take a taxi - really expensive - or Uber out - more reasonable, you're looking at a fairly long, complicated trek by public transportation.
Check the Manassas page on the National Park website, nps.gov, for more detailed info on getting there.

You can see a lot from the car. There are placques that are large in many areas yiou can pull along side them to be able to read. You can see the famous Stonewall Jackson statue, cannons, the fields . There are areas to see that are in the visitors center that he would be able to manage with a walker. Lot's to see on a drive!

The Main Visitor Center, with a movie, museum, and gift shop, are accessible. There is also an accessible old farmhouse with an electric map that focuses on Second Manassas. At the Bull Run river, a solid path leads from the parking area down to an old stone bridge. All of the battlefields' main sights have parking areas with explanatory information nearby. Much of the First Manassas battlefield around the Visitor Center can be viewed from a wheelchair. However, several of the Second Manassas sights are best seen on foot, sometimes with considerable walking. The 12-stop, 12-mile "driving tour" takes you to all the trail heads, but I recommend selectivity on where you stop.

can we see anything from driving in the car? My husband is on a walker, and cannot walk very far. Are there golf carts or trams available for him to ride in?

I am a nurse and live in the area. There is a lot to see from the car. You can drive by Stone House and park in their lot and have a good look, you can see the Stonewall Jackson Statue from the car, there are many roads through the park and you can pull up next to signs and memorials and read them in many places. The Visitors Center has a Great Movie and Map Program. You can pull the car up to the Visitors Center, let him out and help him in - in a typical home about the distance from the kitchen back to the bedroom. The you can go park. The restroom access is down stairs but they do have an elevator to that level as I recall. But the program is on the main level. I would go there first and get a map of the roads of the park. Stone Bridge can be seen as you drive but due to the rush hour traffic here visit between 10 am and 2 pm if possible. Enjoy!
