Map of Ulysses S. Grant National Historic Site in Missouri. Rendered in sage green, an aerial view of the plantation stretches up from a parking lot shown in tan through pale greenish brown surroundings, all of which are dotted with vegetation.

Extended Description

Spanning the lower edge of the map, Grant’s Trail is shown in tan with text at the right end that reads, “To Gravois Road, Highway 30.” A park road crosses Grant’s Trail in the bottom right corner to lead to parking and a Visitor Center with restrooms and wheelchair access, and a Museum. Blue arrows depart from the visitor center, which has a burnt-orange roof, and loop around the site in a Walking Tour.

The path travels alongside a roughly rectangular lawn where the Main House with a Winter Kitchen, a separate Summer Kitchen, and Cistern are accessed. The tour can continue a short distance beyond the house and swing back around and down to the Chicken House and Ice House, which are on the other side of the path from the main house. Six exhibit panels are spaced along the path, which concludes in the long museum building, which has a gray roof. A fence encloses the two narrow ends of the lawn and the long side to the right.

Legend

Symbols next to the walking tour path represent Restroom and Wheelchair accessible. Below, a scale measures distances of 20 meters and 20 feet. A compass shows the North arrow angled to the left.
