The Junior Ranger Program for Overmountain Victory National Historic Trail encourages you to get out and explore!
This trail was the primary route used during the American Revolution by patriots from across the frontier to reach the key patriot victory of the Battle of Kings Mountain on October 7, 1780. The trail today consists of a 330-mile Commemorative Motor Route, an extensive network of disconnected hiking trails, and great site partners throughout Virginia, Tennessee, North Carolina, and South Carolina.
Use this free while visiting one of the partner sites, walking along one of the trails, or driving along the motor route.
Once completed, there are three ways to submit the book for the badge!
1. Submit the book at one of our participating site partners.
2. Mail the book to our headquarters at 338 New Pleasant Road, Gaffney, SC 29341.
3. Email us scans or images of the completed book at ovvi_information@nps.gov.
While exploring the trail at our partner sites, don't forget to ask if they also have a Junior Ranger or similar program that you can complete for additional prizes!
