Kennesaw Mountain National Battlefield Park offers educators and students a combination of environmental and historical study all in one beautiful place. Nestled in the Piedmont geologic province of North Georgia, Kennesaw Mountain is a 300-million-year-old witness to years of historic change, both natural and social.

Teachers and students can explore the park by participating in a ranger-led program and self-guided field trips.
