Wawayanda State Park

The quiet charm of Wawayanda appeals to hikers, campers, swimmers and boaters. Forested hills surround Lake Wawayanda creating a restful backdrop for canoeists, boaters, and fisherman, while steep mountains challenge casual as well as serious hikers. A twenty-mile stretch of the Appalachian Trail runs through the park, while the top of Wawayanda Mountain offers sensational views. More than forty miles of trails are marked in the park. Three group campsites are available with pit toilets; total capacity: 150. Water is not available at campsites and it must be carried from the maintenance building.

The park is located in extreme north central New Jersey, near the New York stateline.
