La battaglia del Wilderness fu la prima battaglia della campagna terrestre del 1864 ten. gen. Ulysses S. Grant 1864 in Virginia contro il generale Robert E. Lee e l'Armata della Virginia Settentrionale confederata.

La battaglia fu combattuta il 5–7 maggio 1864. Nonostante la netta inferiorità numerica , il grande stratega confederato riuscì a muovere battaglia esattamente dove voluto, in un terreno estremamente favorevole e di gran lunga meglio conosciuto dalle sue truppe. Per la prima volta, tuttavia, a comandare l'esercito nemico, trovò un avversario altrettanto valido e lo scontro risultò non decisivo per l'abilità dimostrata da Lee e Grant di rispondere efficacemente alle mosse dell'antagonista. Sebbene i federali subirono perdite largamente superiori , Grant con una mossa geniale riprese in mano l'iniziativa e, anziché ritirarsi dietro il Rapidan, mosse verso sud l'offensiva strategica, tentando di interporsi tra Richmond e l'Armata della Virginia settentrionale.
