What campers say

Banning State Park offers dramatic sandstone river scenery, rapids and waterfalls with many interconnected trails and side paths for exploration. Hikers praise varied overlooks, rock formations and a stone mill area; trails are generally well marked but can be steep and rocky, so sturdy shoes are recommended. It can get busy and parking occasionally fills, and campsites vary in size. Note that some visitors report restroom and shower facilities have been closed for an extended period; there are drinking water spigots and vault toilets on site. Be aware of poison ivy and ticks along backcountry sections.
