This mile-long trail leads to the site of Bernard's Cabins. On the eve of the Civil War, these cabins (now gone) were home to as many as thirty-five slaves. During the Battle of Fredericksburg, the Confederates turned the terrain surrounding the cabins into an important artillery position - the focal point of violent combat between dueling cannons.
