Brushy Lake Recreation Area

Great camping, but have to drive to hikes

Sipsey is a great place to camp if you want to travel a bit further outside of Birmingham. We did a really nice hike, but we did have to drive a bit down the road to get to the trail head. We had a pretty nice set up at our campsite and had a decent amount of privacy from other sites. The nature in this area is very cool and consists of caves that you can hike through and giant rocks with massive roots growing down the side which can be climbed on (check out the pics!). The campsite had a nice picnic table and grill, although we didn’t use the grill provided because we brought our own.
