This trail accesses eight popular primitive backpack campsites at the Raymond Fisher campground. These sites are reservable and on a first-come first-served basis. They include a tent pad with a picnic table, lantern hook, and fire pit. There is an outhouse with two toilets located on site. Campers must register at the trailhead by filling out an envelope with their contact and vehicle information before occupying a site. The campsites are located around the old Raymond Fisher home site. All that is left of the home site is a small stack of foundation stone. There is a small pond next to the campsites. Swimming is prohibited. Fishing is allowed with a valid NC Fishing Permit however the only fish in the pond are small catfish.
