Trail Overview

Barrington Ferry is a sandy run down to Barrington County Campground and boat launch. Free camping and river access are available to Harper Lake, connecting to the Altamaha River. It is a fairly well-maintained road that can become soft and challenging after some rain. While towing, you have to pick your route carefully through some rutted-out sections and soft shoulders. With that said, I did see a 2WD car traveling down this road on our way out, but it's recommended to have 4WD if any bad weather is in the forecast. This is a good base camping location for setting out to explore the rest of the state land in the surrounding area.
