Posted 3/18/26

REPUBLIC, Mo. – Wilson’s Creek National Battlefield may conduct prescribed burns in the park between March 13, and March 31. The range of dates is necessary because prescribed fires are dependent on weather conditions. The burns are expected to last multiple days. To assure visitor safety, some trails, trailheads, parking areas including horse trailer parking, and areas of the battlefield will be closed to visitors while the prescribed burn is conducted. The tour road may be closed. The visitor center and museum will remain open.
