For Kids

Text in a circle around a sea coast mortar reads "Petersburg National Battlefield Junior Ranger."

Petersburg National Battlefield is a perfect place for kids to find an outlet for their physical energy and their own sense of curiosity. There are 18 miles of trails to explore which will give children a chance to learn about both history and nature.

Junior Ranger Program
Looking for a Junior Ranger program? Every Jr. Ranger who completes the book earns a Junior Ranger patch. Our parkwide Junior Ranger program is geared toward children ages 7-99. If your child is younger than the recommended age, that just means parents or guardians can assist and join in on the fun so little ones can earn their own patch as well. The Junior Ranger book are available only at the Eastern Front Visitor Center.
