Boat In camping around MD?

• Are there any primitive camping spots that require or allow you to boat into them located around the states of pensilvania, Maryland, Virginia, Delaware, or new jersey. I live right by dc and want to go on a serious adventure :)

• Answer:

  If you are looking for a serious adventure, then you intend to go canoeing and portaging into a wilderness area or similar forest surroundings with primitive, dispersed camping opportunities. In case you are looking for motorized boat options, the links also include that possibility. Allegheny Wilderness is a possibility: 87 miles of the Allegheny River have been designated a National Wild and Scenic River. There are more than 100 islands from the Kinzua Dam to Oil City and 7 of them constitute the Allegheny Islands Wilderness.
