7:00 pm: Lantern Hike! Meet Seasonal ranger at the museum for an informative round-trip hike at night by lantern light up to the newly restored fortification where most of the battle at Fort Pillow took place. Along the way, hikers will cross the newly installed 120-yard-long suspension bridge, which is the longest in the TN State Parks. Ask about All-terrain wheelchairs that can be driven all the way to the Fort. Bring bug spray, water, and light if needed. The program will cost $5 plus tax for our programming fees. Register online or call the park office to register.
