Free and hike-in only, Site H on Trail 200 sits in a bend where the path crosses a small creek, placing it within reach of the Sipsey River for water access. The site has an established fire pit and several cleared tent areas. It falls roughly halfway along the trail, which tends to keep it less crowded than sites closer to the trailheads. Waterfalls are accessible via a short walk up the creek. Campers planning a multi-night loop through camping near William B. Bankhead National Forest will find this a reliable mid-route stop. The Sipsey Wilderness Backcountry Site (Trail 200 Site I) is a short distance southwest for those who want an alternative.
