Camp Glen Wendel Campground

Camp Glen Wendel is a primitive hike-in backcountry campsite located about 1 mile from Yellow River State Forest headquarters, featuring fire rings, benches, and an open meadow setting ideal for stargazing.

The site accommodates groups well with space to spread out, and offers quick access to the White Pine Trail for entry; potable water is available at the forest headquarters near the registration kiosk.

This is a true backcountry experience with no facilities beyond fire rings, making it suitable for backpackers seeking solitude and a remote wilderness experience.
