Gettysburg Battlefield

Biking is a great way to tour the Battlefields. Your visit will begin with the Battlefield Show with its electric map. Then after a morning ride we settle for a wonderful lunch and continue our ride. We will bike a total of 21 miles with time to stop along the way to read the interesting facts about the people and events that were part of this historic battle.  This is road riding but with slow, one-way, sightseeing traffic.  There are some rolling hills on this scenic ride.
