Cowpens National Battlefield — Attraction in Chesnee

This place is an absolute treasure, not only for the heritage and historical learning but also as a recreational area for our family.

The Cowpens Battlefield is located in an area where there are mostly rural roads, farmland, private homesteads and residences. The nearest park is in Chesnee and is very small, making the battlefield the only large recreational park in many miles.

The battlefield provides recreational trails for walking (which have rubberized pavement in most areas), enjoying the natural scenery, and learning historical facts about the area.

The nature trail is an excellent hike through the woods where we spent a few hours with family and friends exploring and discovering plants and animals of the area.

There is also a well-paved loop road running about the circumference of the area which is excellent for cycling. Traffic is minimal.

I go to the battleground part at least twice a week. With my baby boy, the Duke. And we have short trails that we walked together And we have longer trails that we walk on better days. This park is always clean and free from debris and vagrants. You can enjoy your walk or ride in your car and feel safe and secure without worries of any kind. No matter what kind or type of walker you are, you can always find anything from short to extend it in this beautiful battlefield park. I cannot recommend a better place for Any age from small kids to senior walkers. Come and see for yourself and see why so many folks choose this beautiful park for fitness and recreation. Cookouts are an added bonus with clean tables and grills and also private picnic areas. Come and visit and see for yourself. Lee...

Then you go in to the restaurant assuming that it's not full of old crotchety people. You sit yur buckus down and you forget all about anything healthy. Everything you eat is healthy here. It's full of butter, fat and flavor just like God intended you to eat. Vegetarians stay the hell away from here. I am a follower of cracker barrel and have been for many years. What do I order every time I go and have breakfast? The country fried steak with the gravy on the side. If you haven't had their mystery meat, breaded and deep fried, you owe it to yourself to have the thrill I get...
