Free Camping at Gladwin Dispersed Camping Area, Monongahela NF, WV

Gladwin Dispersed Camping Area is a free boondocking and primitive camping location in West Virginia. In this video, we visit the Gladwin Dispersed Camping Area located within the Monongahela National Forest in Tucker County, West Virginia. This free 14 day camping area has no facilities and trash is pack it out. I located no less than four RV friendly dispersed campsites at this location, several with spectacular views of the Cheat River. In addition, a small level dirt parking area is available adjacent to a flat forested area along the Cheat River. This location has several stone fire rings for walk-in tent camping. This area is also suitable for kayak launch. Hiking is available on the 287.81 mile north-south Allegheny Trail that passes through the Gladwin Dispersed Camping Area. Just follow the yellow blazes. Hiking maps for the trail are available through the West Virginia Scenic Trail Association which administers the trail. There is no AT&T or Verizon cellular service at this location. Generally, the paved public roads providing access to this camping location are narrow and are not big rig friendly. Grid coordinates are as follows: 39.0072040, -79.5490170

We are from Georgia and even though the video is 2yrs old this is a beautiful area. We are looking outside of our state for some areas such as this in the mountain areas. The Georgia mountains are beautiful and we must say that the videos of your beautiful state has made us decide to visit these areas. Thanks for sharing so much beauty with us. Frank and Lisa

Thank You so much for finding these hidden gems! I'm in North Carolina and these are not far from me. I recently purchased an 8.5 X 18 ft. cargo trailer that is being built as I type this. I hope to pick it up first week of June and then begin transforming it into my ideal camper. I will start camping in it as soon as I get my basic insulation,wiring with a/c installed and build it as I go along. The areas you found will be perfect for my rig. My TV is a 2007 Dodge 3500 Mega Cab RWD. I recently retired and looking forward to seeing all this country has to offer keep up the good work and awesome video's! Thanks Again....Alan Osborne Apex,NC

Looks like purple lizard map shows these dispersed camping sites. Headed that way at the end of the month.

The Yellow blazing is for the Allegheny Trail, West Virginia's long distance trail 300+ plus miles

[@Optimisticchris]

I am so glad I found your vids LODN! Is this on Richford Road 26 ? Thank you Sir.

[@wvevie7612]

I'm wondering how you came in or rather, what is the best way in. Coming down from Parsons on 72 and onto 26 or down from Davis or even up from Harmon? I'd appreciate how you all got there? Thanks for posting. These sites look beautiful.

I was camping at that same spot next to the bridge last august and unfortunately a large chunk actually had collapsed, probably a good golf cart size chunk on the right size

[@brianlowe4321]

Another question....what would this stream fall under in accordance to trout stocking? (Which river)

[@TheRikkymunoz]

Can you park a jeep closer to the river?

[@kangaroo4527]

Are there any Real secluded areas there? And how much is by a River? I'm looking for a good place.

[@inkram]

Can I get a 30’ 5th wheel down the road leading to the campground?

[@kosycat1]

Wonder how that bridge hasn't been swept away yet!

[@gregmueller24]

Could I get a teardrop back along the river?

[@danfitzwater1229]

Would you happen to have directions or coordinates to gladwin

[@TheRikkymunoz]
