The Hanna Campground is open one week before Memorial Day through one week after Labor Day. NOTE: Walk-in tent sites are open year round. The elevation is 5,600 ft. 13 Sites. Campground is adjacent to Spruce-lined East Spearfish Creek. A wide Spruce-lined meadow is behind campground in front of pine-covered mountains - a scenic and peaceful place to camp. Half the sites are walk-ins. The Spearfish Canyon Scenic Byway begins north of campground at State Rt. 14A. There are limited groceries and gas at Cheyenne Crossing, north of campground.

From Lead, SD, take US Highway 85 south 7.6 miles to Hanna campground sign (just beyond Cheyenne Crossing). Turn left at sign and go 2.2 miles to campground.
Beautiful place to camp if you are in the area. Two vault toilets, a hand pump for water. Listen to the creek and watch stars. Bring a warm sleeping bag and/or an extra blanket as it can get cold even in summer. Minutes from Spearfish Canyon.
Beautiful place to camp. Lots of challenging hikes. I liked falling asleep to the sound of the stream that runs past the camping sites. Stayed there a week in a tent and will definitely do again. Great location if you want to explore the Black Hills. Only drawback was the noise from all the atvs that went past several times a day, every day we were there.
