Setting
Fairly secluded
This primitive camping and picnic area sits on sandstone bluffs overlooking the Ohio River. The site features a scenic overlook platform with benches, fire rings, picnic tables, a vault toilet, an information board, and garbage cans. There is no drinking water on site. Visitors can access a steep, strenuous 0.5-mile trail that descends directly from the bluff down to the riverbank.
- Well separated here, a 5-site campground with the nearest through road 2.0 miles off.
- A river runs 0.1 mi off.
- Open country, with nothing named rising within 30 miles.
