Something not right?
Description
iOverlander cannot verify if wild camping is permitted at this location. It is your responsibility to verify local laws or obtain consent before staying the night.
Lots of dispersed sites in this area. It is an ORV area but also lots of small ponds so some nice sites can be found. Good, flat, roads. AT&T was often no service, but found a spots with 3 bars 5G.
Why? By checking in after you’ve visited a place you let others know this place is still functional. You can also add or correct any information.

Hanging Rock ORV trails in Wayne NF….14 day limit…maybe 6 established sites…vault toilets…1 bar LTE ATT
Report Check-InPlenty of legal dispersed sites through this national recreational area. There is also a network of OTV trails so I did a pleasant 9km hike right out the door in the morning. T-Mobile service available but slow—just 1 or 2 bars of LTE. I was able to park flat but most sites seem relatively uneven. Still, a great option in the area.
Report Check-InYou’re looking for the Hanging Rock OHV System in Wayne National Forest.
Coordinates are for this specific little turn-in, which was thankfully open! There are several other more “official” looking sites along the way as well, but it was long after dark so I opted not to explore until morning.
I was bummed not to hike around, because it is such a pretty area, especially at this time of year, and looks like there’s a trail or two stemming right off of this site!
Worked great for a quick overnight sleep, but would probably want a different campsite down the road for a multi-night stay. Lots of tree roots make the ground uneven. I was able to get a decently level situation with my little rig, but bigger setups will likely feel pretty cramped in this specific spot.
Pit toilets are at the trailhead, not sure if they have more at any of the campsites.
Report Check-InA few spots in the forest. Very quiet even if we saw a few cars passing by. Sites big enough for any kind of rigs.
