Primitive Camping at Panola

Grab your marshmallows and dust off your tent! Five new camping sites have been created near Scout Lake in Panola Mountain State Park. These sites are currently the only public camping locations within the Arabia Mountain National Heritage Area and they offer visitors a chance to see this special place after dark.

This spot is the perfect place to unplug since there is no power, no cars, and no street lights to interfere with enjoyment of the natural treasures around you. The primitive camping sites can only be reached via a ½ mile hike. The sites do not offer electricity or running water but they do have a composting toilet, picnic table, fire ring, a lamp post, and plenty of peace and quiet.
