The Hole-in-the-Wall is a colorful and scenic red sandstone escarpment that is rich in legend of outlaw activity from the late 1800s, most notably Butch Cassidy and the Wild Bunch Gang. The "hole" is a gap in the Red Wall that, legend has it, was used secretly by outlaws to move horses and cattle from the area.

The area is primitive in nature, with no services. A three mile trail starts on State land and ends on BLM at the Hole in the Wall.

Backcountry camping is allowed in the recreation area. Visitors should be skilled in cross-country travel and take adequate water, food, and fuel. Please pack trash from the area, and respect private property owners who are working with the BLM to make this an enjoyable recreation opportunity.

Getting there

From I-25 take Exit 249 TTT Road. Head southwest on TTT Road off the interstate. The road then turn southeast. Go about 11 miles and veer right (TTT Ranch is to the left). TTT Road becomes Natrona County Road 112/Lone Bear Road. Veer right at the next Y-intersection onto Willow Creek Road and go about 3.5 miles. Veer right towards Hole in the Wall and go about 4 miles. Veer right at the elevated white grain bins and go another 6 miles. Turn right onto Natrona County Road 105 towards Hole in the Wall. Natrona County Road 105 is a 4WD unmaintained road suitable only for high clearance vehicles during dry conditions. Stay straight on the two-track and go through 6 gates, about 9.5 miles to the trailhead. Please remember to leave the gates as you find them.
