Surprise Dispersed Camping Area

Javalina Dispersed Camping Area is a patch of designated dispersed camping near Cornville, Arizona, run by the USFS and open to the public. Dispersed means what it says: no numbered pads, no water, no toilets, no trash service. You pitch on ground that is already bare and you carry out everything you carried in. The USFS page for the West Sedona designated dispersed camping area sets the rules that apply, including how many nights you may stay and whether a fire is allowed that week. Fire rules change through the year and can shut this ground at short notice, so read the current order the morning you leave.

Lime Kiln Trail is the longest trail listed here at 15.24 miles, near Cornville, in the Red Rock Ranger District of Coconino National Forest. It is trail number 82. The typical grade is 5 to 8 percent, moderate, which is the only reason a distance like that is walkable in a day at all. It is class 2, on native material. The allowed uses are not posted, so ask before you ride. Fifteen miles in this country is a water, heat and daylight problem before it is a fitness one. Plan it with the district office rather than from a map alone.

Rockview Dispersed Camping Area is USFS ground near Cornville, Arizona, open to the public for dispersed camping. There are no marked sites, no water, no toilets and nobody to take your rubbish, so plan to be self contained and to leave the spot as you found it. Park on bare ground rather than making a new clearing. Stay limits and campfire rules are on the USFS page for the West Sedona designated dispersed camping area, and both change with the season. Fire restrictions can close ground like this quickly in a dry year, so check the current order before you drive out rather than after.

Elmerville Spur K Trail is 2.5 miles near Village of Oak Creek, in the Red Rock Ranger District of Coconino National Forest, as trail number 115K. It is one of the longer lettered spurs off the route numbered 115. Expect native material and a typical grade of 5 to 8 percent. The trail class is 1, the least developed class, which at two and a half miles means real navigation rather than following signs. The permitted uses are not posted here. Take a map and tell someone your route.

Windmill Dispersed Camping Area is a dispersed camping area listed under the USFS out from Sedona. Access is open and that the area is not reservable, so it is first come, first served, and on a busy weekend that means going early or having a second plan. Dispersed camping means no hookups, no water, no restrooms, and no trash pickup, and you pack out what you bring in. We have no address, no phone number, no directions, no site count, and nothing about road surface or fire rules on file. Fire rules change with the season, so check with the USFS before you build anything.

Angel Valley Dispersed Camping Area is a camping spot in the Cornville, Arizona area. Map records tag it as a camp site, list the operator as USFS, and mark access as open to the public. That is the whole record, and it is thin. There is no address, no phone number, and no set of directions listed here. We do not know the fees, the hours, the road surface, or whether any facilities exist. Dispersed camping usually means you bring everything with you, but we cannot confirm that for this spot. Check with USFS for fire rules, road conditions, and closures before you drive out, because those change through the year.
