Best Dispersed Camping near Kent, AL

Dispersed camping options near Kent, Alabama include Weogufka State Forest Backcountry Site 1 and Hollins Hunting Camp. These primitive sites provide basic accommodations for campers seeking a more remote outdoor experience. Both locations are free to access and do not require permits, making them suitable for spontaneous camping trips.

Weogufka State Forest Backcountry Site 1 features a unique platform built on an old building site with an intact fireplace, potentially useful during colder nights. According to reviews, metal rings installed on the platform can secure rain flies. The site is located near the Pinhoti southern terminus but lacks immediate water access. Campers must either carry water in or hike to nearby streams for refills.

Hollins Hunting Camp accommodates tent camping with drive-in and walk-in access. The area has good road access and several open spots for setting up camp. Several campers noted that overlanders with rooftop tents will find this location particularly suitable, while areas with pine trees offer better ground camping due to the pine needle cover. Small camper trailers can navigate the roads, but visitors should be mindful of turnaround spots. The camp lacks signage at the final turn, which can make late arrivals challenging. No facilities are available, as expected at dispersed sites.

Both camping areas permit pets and allow fires when no restrictions are in place. The open sky at Hollins Hunting Camp creates excellent stargazing opportunities. Visitors should prepare for self-sufficient camping by bringing all necessary supplies, including drinking water, as no amenities or facilities are provided at either location.
