Many of the resources for the First Battle of Manassas also incorporate the Second Battle. There are accessible walking and driving tours, wheelchair accessible trails, and e-books.
The Henry Hill Visitor Center’s maps, exhibits, and walking tours cover the events of the second battle, as does the park orientation film, “Manassas, End of Innocence.” The maps, exhibits, and tours offer tactile experiences, captioning, and wheelchair access.
Park rangers provide 45 to 60 minute-long talks and short walking tours that are scheduled daily weather permitting in the immediate vicinity of the visitor center. These can accommodate persons with mobility disabilities. Ramps from the visitor center provide access to Henry Hill that is fairly level near the visitor center and suitable for wheelchair use when the ground is dry.
