fort granger park印象

Had an enjoyable walk in this area. They had enough signage and information available to make it interesting and easy to find from the Pinkerton Park parking lot. Beautiful setting with all those big, old trees and made the walk much more enjoyable when it provided some shade from the sun. This was an easy walk for us, but does require the ability to climb stairs so that might be an issue for some. Didn't have our kids with us, but had they been they would've been able to complete this walk, but probably wouldn't have enjoyed it quite as much as we did.

Wide open space to play Frisbee, have a picnic, etc. Short hiking trail with opportunities for beautiful pictures. Great for history buffs too - see the park website for more info on that. I LOVED this place.

Markers give you a visual of what the fort would of looked like. A little hard to see surroundings due to the trees.

Ft. Granger is preserved much as it would have been in 1863 and later during the Battle of Franklin November 30, 1864. A very good example of how such location were laid out for the defense of a location/installation during that era. Easily accessible and recent maintence of the grounds make it an attractive place to visit or just a place to go sit, read or imagine the happenings of November 1864

We had our grandchildren with us. They enjoyed playing and running in Pinkerton Park. The walk to Fort Granger was pleasant through the park and then up the side of the fort through the trees and over the rocks. We adults found the history interesting, and the kids had fun climbing and running around.

For a Civil War enthusiast Fort Granger is worth the trip, as it is somewhat hard to locate. That being said, the fort itself is well marked with interpretive signs and the fort's earthen walls are clearly visible and well defined. The best part of the experience is being able to look down on the town of Franklin and imagine where the fighting took place. It will give you a better sense of the topography and how it shaped the battle.

This is an interesting site to visit. The outlines of the original fort are clearly visible even though there are no visible signs of any of the original structures. Informative signs located throughout the area bring the fort back to life. There is a newly constructed handicapped access ramp into the fort. Nearby is a picnic pavilion and one port-a-potty. There appears to be a dearth of restroom facilities in this park.

Amazing place, even amazing what picks and shovels can accomplish. Nice walking trails and waysides, but some of waysides need to be replace because of elements.

We enjoyed this park and the hike. Getting to see where the soldiers held their ground and to stand where they stood to watch for the enemy was a great experience.

There is no guided tours, it is all self guided, and be prepared for a work out! The paths are clearly marked and WELL taken care of, plus there is informational posts all along the trails. No buildings remain, but use your imagination. The rocky ledge stairs are VERY step and if it rains (like it did for us) watch your footing. But there is nothing that can beat that amazing view. ENJOY!
