Indian Flats Hiker\-Biker Campsite is a primitive camping area situated at milepost 42\.5 on the historic Chesapeake and Ohio Canal towpath in Frederick County, Maryland\.

The campsite is accessible only by foot, bicycle, or horseback and requires campers to travel the towpath to reach it\. This free camping area operates on a first\-come, first\-served basis with no reservations accepted\. Overnight stays are limited to one night per site, and facilities include a portable chemical toilet available year\-round, a picnic table, and a grill for cooking\. Water is provided seasonally but is non\-potable and must be filtered, chemically treated, or boiled before use\. Water service is turned off from mid\-November through mid\-April\. As a primitive campsite, Indian Flats offers a rustic camping experience without hookups, showers, trash service, or potable water\. Fires are restricted to the provided grill or portable grills positioned off the ground, and all coals must be extinguished and removed from the park\.
