Hanging Rock Trailhead

"Great place to ride fish whatever you wanna do. Nice parking area with easy unloading with restrooms and easy access"

"Great trails. But, what was so disappointing here was the amount of trash everywhere. Whatever happened to "pack it in, pack it out"?!"

"A 12-mile loop hiking trail shared with ATVs, people show courtesy to share the trail. Trails are easily identifiable and there are plenty of places to access the river/lake for the pup. There are 3 steep downhill-uphill combo in the loop but the elevation change is not too strenuous (about 250')."

"Thought I'd stop back here and see what was in the area. Sure wish they had a sign posted at the road of how far it was to get back. It was 1.5 miles to get to the trailhead."

"I've been around a lot of different spots in Wayne National Forest, but this is probably the coolest area. The area has over 50 ponds/lakes. You can camp for free, you can fish, you can swim. Their are a lot of trails for off road vehicles, horses and mountain bikes. Their are limitless areas to hike and camp. If you want a true primitive camping experience, it's hard to beat this area. Many campsites I've been to before are just rows of grassy plots to pull up to and camp. Like that, you have no privacy and you're truly at the mercy of the other people camping on either side of you. It's a really good experience having what feels like all of nature to yourself. It's amazing to be the only one around for miles, listening to the coyotes, wolves, owls and other animals at night. Waking up to the sunrise across a lake from your camp is pretty awesome too. I can't really say enough positive reasons to visit Wayne National Forest through the Hanging Rock Recreation Area. It's definitely a place worth visiting. It makes it worth driving through Hanging Rock... just don't speed."
