Georgia State Parks & Historic Sites

Primitive Camping

Pioneer Camping
Organized groups such as Scouts can pitch tents in these private camping areas found at most state parks. All come with pit toilets, most have water spigots and some have covered picnic shelters and grills. These primitive campsites will not accommodate RVs or trailers and usually do not provide showers.

Backcountry Sites
Backpackers will enjoy the solitude of these undeveloped sites. All camping gear (including water) is packed in and out by the hiker. A few parks, such as Tugaloo and Ft. McAllister, have primitive campsites that do not require a long hike.
