Patapsco Valley State Park McKeldin Campground

McKeldin Campground offers youth group camping facilities along the South Branch Patapsco River in Carroll County, with access to miles of multi-use trails for hiking, mountain biking, and horseback riding.

The area features a rapids overlook and river access approximately 0. 1 mile from the Rapids Trail, though swimming is prohibited due to dangerous currents in the rapids and pool below.

Youth groups must call park headquarters (410-461-5005) the day prior if arriving after sunset, as park gates lock at sunset.
