Red River Gorge Campsite Trail

This short 0.2 mile out-and-back recording is a short trail at Red River Gorge National Geological Area in Pine Ridge, Kentucky that leads out to two campsites and a little lookout point of the surrounding hills at the end of the trail.

Parking can be found at the Rough Trail parking lot. The first campsite is visible from the parking lot, but there's a second campsite that sits further back hidden from view. You can fit at least two small tents in the campsite furthest back and you can fit at least 4 small tents in the first campsite.

The lookout point at the end of the trail gives you a nice view of the sunset and after-sunset colors in the evening sky.

Camping permits required: Camping permits are required and can be purchased at local gas stations and other shops in the area. A 1-night pass will cost $3. You can also purchase 3-night passes.
