On April 1, 1865, U.S. troops attacked Confederates at a crossroads called Five Forks. Its capture would threaten the Confederates' only remaining supply route. Join a Park Ranger for a 30–45 minute program examining this important battle that helped bring an end to the siege. Meet the
Park Ranger for this free program at the parking lot for Five Forks Tour Stop #3 (The Intersection). Please park in the parking lot and not along the road.
Program is subject to cancellation due to weather or other issues.
