## Details

Antietam is a moderate 8 mile hike around this sacred battle field. We travel up rolling fields, along a stream, and among gorgeous farmlands in addition to seeing various monuments along way.
This is approximately a 3 - 4 hour hike and it takes 90 minutes to get to Antietam from Baltimore. Please plan accordingly; we step off at 1030 sharp.

There is a $6 charge for cars to park at the visitors center. Please meet at flagpole at visitors center. Please bring plenty of water, wear comfortable shoes and bring some snacks. We will stop along the stream to eat our snacks. :)

**No dogs please**
The Bloodiest One Day Battle in American History
23,000 soldiers were killed, wounded or missing after twelve hours of savage combat on September 17, 1862. The Battle of Antietam ended the Confederate Army of Northern Virginia's first invasion into the North and led to Abraham Lincoln's issuance of the preliminary Emancipation Proclamation.
