Guilford Courthouse National Military Park is beginning to increase recreational access to Tour Road and Parking Lots

Greensboro, NC – Following guidance from the White House, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), and state and local public health authorities, Guilford Courthouse National Military Park is increasing recreational access. The National Park Service (NPS) is working servicewide with federal, state, and local public health authorities to closely monitor the COVID-19 pandemic and using a phased approach to increase access on a park-by-park basis.
Beginning June 9, 2020, Guilford Courthouse National Military Park will increase access to: 

• Hoskins Farm Site parking lot,

• Visitor Center parking lot and loop tour road (resumption of motor vehicle access), and

• Overflow parking lot (intersection of New Garden Road and Old Battleground Road).

• Tour Stop 6 comfort station.

The hours of operation are modified for the Tour Road, Parking Lots, and Comfort Station: 9AM to 4PM.

In addition, the 254-acre park grounds, trails and tour road, and Greensboro Greenway access continue to be available and accessible to the public. As a reminder, bicycles are not allowed on interior trails.

With public health in mind, the following facilities remain closed at this time:

• Visitor Center

The health and safety of our visitors, employees, volunteers, and partners continues to be paramount. At Guilford Courthouse National Military Park, our operational approach will be to examine each facility function and service provided to ensure those operations comply with current public health guidance, and will be regularly monitored. We continue to work closely with the NPS Office of Public Health using CDC guidance to ensure public and workspaces are safe and clean for visitors, employees, partners, and volunteers.  

While these areas are accessible for visitors to enjoy, a return to full operations will continue to be phased and services may be limited. When recreating, the public should follow local area health orders, practice Leave No Trace principles, avoid crowding and avoid high-risk outdoor activities.

Details and updates on park operations will continue to be posted on our website https://www.nps.gov/guco/index.htm and social media channels. Updates about NPS operations will be posted on www.nps.gov/coronavirus.
