Sorrel Ridge Campground
Like several locks in this section of the Canal, concrete replaces several sections. The remains of the lockhouse are also nearby.
The free overnight campsite provides a portable toilet, picnic table, grill/fire ring and water source.
Please Note: Potable water may not be available at each campsite. Water is treated with iodine. Please plan to have water purification tablets with you. Water is turned off from November 15 to April 15 each year.
Please visit the C&O Canal National Historical Park's website for detailed camping information, or you can call 301-739-4200 with any questions. Site reservations can be made via the Recreation.gov website.
