Directions to Cemetery

Navigation systems do an adequate job finding the cemetery, which is located at the corner of Cook and Goosley Roads in Yorktown, VA. Parking is NOT available at the Yorktown National Cemetery. Park in the village of Yorktown (see parking information). Please do not walk in the roadways and arrive before 11:30am to ensure enough time to get to the ceremony site.

When you arrive, please use the designated Yorktown Trolley shuttle (marked with a wreath) to the site of the ceremony itself. The National Park Service, in partnership with York County has arranged for this special event parking and shuttle service.
