Description

From the parking lot, head through the field towards the line of trees. The path can be difficult to make out depending on the season, but the cut through the trees never is. As you pass through the trees, you'll be heading generally west. During the winter you can easily see across Antietam Creek, where the Union troops made their way across Burnside's Bridge below.
