Bishop Knob Campground

Bishop Knob is an underutilized resource of the Monongahela National Forest. Other nearby campgrounds draw the crowds, leaving Bishop Knob to languish in obscurity. Don’t pass this place by—and for two bucks what have you got to lose? Especially considering the assets of Bishop Knob and the other attractions that draw campers to the more popular campgrounds nearby. So what’s at Bishop Knob? Try a quiet and secluded ridgetop camping area with a few trails of its own and quick access to both the Williams and Cranberry rivers. Plus, Bishop Knob rarely gets over 50% capacity, which means you can nab a campsite already rife with natural privacy and make it even more private by having no one on either side of you.
