Has anyone been to the Wayne National forest near Athens Ohio & whats it like? I was planning on going on 4/17 & 4/18. Any recomendaions on where to lodge especially w/ a water hose to clean off the mud.
Thanks
Jim

 

Jim, it is an awsome place to go! You'll be back for sure. The trails never end and are well groomed with lots of different terrain. Take extra socks, there will be alot of BIG puddles this time of year.

The best place to camp is Williams Campground off of 595 below New Straitsville...watch for the small sign a few miles south of town. It's cheap, hot water showers, primitave or hookups available, atv'ists everywhere! Campground is seated right on the Main Corridor Trail and has direct access from your lawn chair! There's water but for drinking only...no atv washing!

There is a daily or yearly pass to ride the forestry but the lady at the camp office has them on demand. State law...gotta have it. Five bucks a day per quad or 25yr...worth every dime.

Enjoy! and let us know how the trails were.
