EXPLORE THE AREA

What To Do While Visiting

While we have many great amenities on site, Birmingham South RV Park is also an ideal stayover spot when looking to camp and explore the “‘Magic City” for yourself. Birmingham has something for everyone! Nestled at the foothills of the Appalachian Mountains and at the cross-section of two major railroads, the city was once the primary industrial center of the southern United States. Today, it is the cultural and entertainment capital of Alabama, and a great place to visit for sightseers, outdoor enthusiasts, families, and friends. Named one of the nation’s most livable cities with a vibrant downtown, here you’ll find a world-famous Theater, a world-class culinary scene, and more green space per capita than any other city in the nation!
