FREE Sumter National Forest Enoree District in Fairfield, Newberry, Laurens, Chester, and Union counties. Free dispersed camping in this area on public properties. This area is adminstrated by the USFS. This area is in the foothills and has numerous large hills to camp and drive around, good for hiking. There are sites right next to I-26 which aren't private at all due to traffic and there are sites abutting towns. But if you venture down the Forest Service Roads and the logging roads, you'll find areas with no people around for miles. Make sure to pick a MVUM so you'll know where private and public properties are and you'll know if your car can handle a road. Most Forest Service Roads can be done in a family car, but an unmapped, unsigned logging road will probably require 4WD. These roads often have grassy cul-de-sacs which are perfect for camping, turning around, and parking an RV. <br />Directions: From Columbia: Get on Main Street, heading north from the state house and stay on this road until you reach the SC-215 junction.
