Shiloh is one of the battlefields which has witnessed in past the bloodiest battle of US history. Shiloh is 110 miles from Memphis airport and 150 miles from Nashville airport. You can access the rental car facility from both the places. This way you can reach the Shiloh by plane.

You can also reach Shiloh by your private vehicle or car. I would like to explain the map.

From the west (Memphis Tennessee area), take 72 easts to Corinth Mississippi. From the Corinth civil war interpretive center take highway 22 north to Shiloh battlefield.

In this way you can reach the place with an ease. I do feel that you will not find any difficulty either you choose the plane or you come by your own vehicle. Memphis is more than a famous place. You can easily get a plane from any part of the US to reach this city. And from Memphis you can always hire the car on rent. It will take you to the Shiloh military park where you want to go.

However if you have your own vehicle then you can always drive to Shiloh by following the route as stated above. You will definitely find no difficulty.

The best time to visit this place is April and the period extends up till the mid august. I do feel that you will definitely find lots of living events being performed here in this time period.

The Corinth civil war interpretive center sits at the site of battery Robinett where some most brutal fighting took place. Now this place is the graveyard of some generals and colonels and soldiers. I do feel that it is must to see site and you should definitely see it at least once.

Operating time
As far as the operating time is concerned I do feel that the park visitor center is open from 8:00 clock in the morning up till dusk. You will definitely find it to be really open continuously. The only day when it is closed is the Christmas day. Apart from this day it is open for all the days throughout the year.

However the operating time differs for Corinth and the Shiloh Park. The timing for each of them is as follows:

1. Shiloh battlefield
It is open everyday except the Christmas day and the timing is 8:00 o clock in the morning up till dusk.

2. Corinth civil war interpretive center
It is also open throughout the year but is closed on the Christmas day. The time of closing is 4:30 p.m.

The fee is also nominal and that is $5 for the whole family.

I do feel that you can easily visit this place with all these information and enjoy your trip.
