Chalk Bluff Battlefield Park preserves Civil War earthworks on high bluffs above the Black River — ideal for combining historical monuments, interpretive markers and river/woodland landscapes. Visit at sunrise or golden hour for warm side-lighting on monuments and long shadows across the bluffs; misty mornings after rain add atmosphere over the river. Small parking area off County Road 368; trails are short and mostly flat but expect uneven ground. No fee; respect memorials.
