Camp 5 Dispersed

Camp 5 Dispersed is located in the Black Hills region of South Dakota. The campground is situated in an off-highway vehicle (OHV) area, making it popular among riders. Its location in the Black Hills provides a scenic backdrop for camping with access to the surrounding natural areas. The proximity to recreational trails makes it convenient for those looking to explore the region while having a central base camp.

Camp 5 Dispersed is a basic camping area with minimal amenities. During the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally, expect the same primitive camping experience as other times of year. The area offers numerous dispersed camping spots suitable for tents and small campers. Being an OHV area, there's easy access for motorcycles. The campground can get busy during the rally, so arriving early to secure a spot is recommended. There are no formal amenities like water, electric hookups, or shower facilities, so come prepared with all necessary supplies for self-sufficient camping.

The road conditions for accessing Camp 5 are somewhat challenging. The entrance and portions of the access road are quite rough, which may present difficulties for some vehicles. Despite the rugged conditions, motorcyclists can still reach camping spots, though caution is advised. Further down the road, the terrain is accessible enough for vehicles towing campers up to 20 feet in length. Prepare for bumpy travel and consider a vehicle with decent clearance if possible.
