The best camping near Battle Hill National Historic Site guide

Overview

About

Battle Hill National Historic Site is located on a rolling landscape in the valley of Battle Hill near Highway 2 (also known as Longwoods Road) west of Wardsville, Ontario. The site is associated with the Battle of Longwoods, which occurred on March 4, 1814 on an open landscape near what is now Battle Hill Creek. Following a short skirmish between the British Regulars and American forces, the British were forced to retreat back to Delaware, while the Americans abandoned their advance and retreated to Detroit. There are no known extant remains of the battle; however, the site is marked by a plaque and cairn positioned on a small rise of land and surrounded by an iron fence. Official recognition refers to a polygon of land near Highway 2 in Wardsville Ontario.

When to go

The Battle Hill National Historic Site is accessible year-round, offering a unique experience in every season. The summer months bring warm weather perfect for exploring, while the fall transforms the landscape into a tapestry of vibrant colors. Winter offers a stark, peaceful beauty, but be prepared for cold temperatures. Spring's mild weather is ideal for witnessing the valley's rejuvenation.
