Visit the Welcome Center first to learn about the history of Fort Pillow and ask to watch the short film. Staff is very well informed and helpful in answering questions about the time period and the soldiers who fought, died, and were buried there. Tip: If you plan to hike up to the mass grave, use the restroom at the Welcome Center first and take along a water bottle with you. There are no facilities on the hill so be prepared. If you have trash, kindly dispose of it in the garage receptacle or take it with you. Treat the area with respect- American soldiers died there. Thanks for reading my review!

Nice park with a fascinating history, great hiking trails as well as a nice visitors center. We enjoyed the 2.5 mile hike to the restored fortifications. The trails were well-maintained, however, some of the steps were rather steep. One of the interesting things to see was the Mississippi River overlook. There, you were able to see the Mississippi River in it's current position and where it was actually located during the Civil War. It was fascinating to learn the history of Fort Pillow and the massacre that ultimately took place there. Just a heads-up that cell-phone service is very sketchy in/around the park. There was what appeared to be a footbridge that was damaged and out of commission. I'm not sure where that bridge would have taken us, but it looked like it had been impressive at one time. In addition to hiking, you can go camping, fishing and picnicking.

Gorgeous park with beautiful trails. It's rather in the middle of nowhere, but that gives it a very rustic feel. Make sure you buy firewood before coming in though, since the park doesn't sell it. The closest vendor was 10miles away and was rather pricey. Phone service is very spotty, so make your calls before you get there!
