Planned Activities
The trail shall prevail!
Celebrate the American Battlefield Trust's 30th annual Park Day by helping the National Park Service remove litter from Fort Davis! Part of the Civil War Defenses of Washington Trail, the fort's scenic hiking and biking along rows of towering trees is spoiled by garbage strewn about, and we're seeking volunteers willing to pitch in and clean it up.
