Dispersed camping along the gravel access road serves hikers bound for the Walls of Jericho gorge system. The Alabama Department of Natural Resources manages this primitive site within James D. Martin - Skyline Wildlife Management Area, where campers park along the roadside before tackling the challenging trail system.
No facilities exist at this trailhead location—campers must bring water and pack out all waste. The nearby Walls of Jericho - Trailhead Campsite provides a more established alternative just 0.1 miles away for those wanting designated camping spots.
