Wawayanda State Park

It's $5 a car for New Jersey residents and $10 for everyone else. There is also an unofficial entrance to the park from the west side, (look closely at the map), but it's gated off and you have to walk 10 minutes from the gate to get to the beach/playground/grills/etc. Discovered it the last time we went thanks to Google maps routing us that way. Ha...

Small but there's a waterfall at wingdam. There's a nice flat water scene at twin bridges also

Not in public

No they don't anymore and for the second questions the answer is not much it's pretty much the same

No.

Week days are best.

I remember hearing somewhere around the 1500 range I know the peaks in the kittitiny mountains are higher then wawayanda mountains. Also the air and water quality are better in the kittitiny mountains and there are more views.

Beaches close after Labor Day. You can still picnic, grill, suntan, hike...but no swimming. The park police will not allow you to swim because there aren't any lifeguards on duty

Its safe to swim..

Not supposed to

Yes but not open right now

Yes it does. Your better of on the weekdays

I suggest calling them. Things change seasonally here. Confirm by asking.

Yes you can horseback ride there follow the road around to the boat launch. Just prior to the boat launch there is a turn off a trailer parking across from the beach

Cash only.

And

Labor day is the last official day for swimming. The park is open throughout the year however.

I think it safe the last time I want the water were open. but the water of shepherd lake was close. I don't no why it was close to the people. But wawayan lake are open to everyone.

Yeah, just be respectful with the volume. And keep the music family friendly.

Dogs are allowed. Dog swinging is not.

Don't know. Since its a state park, I'm sure it's reasonable. Maybe on their web site. Since I LIVED down the street, never used the web site. State parks are rather uniform in rules and prices.

Memorial Day 🇺🇸

All activities are allowed as long as it doesn't disrupt wildlife. No motor atv....or dirt bikes. The worse are people going to the beach and lake and not taking their garbage back with them. The biggest offenders are a large group from Joel n.y. outside of Warwick. When a black bear, comes and one of the kids gets hurt.....it will be their own fault.

Stairway to Heaven can be reached off of Route 94 outside Vernon NJ toward Warwick NY. You can begin the hike right across the road From Heaven Hill Farm Garden Center. If coming from Warwick the farm center will be on your right.

No. However you should call. Depending on the reason they may allow via permit.

When the lifeguards go back to school, usually their first year of college. During the summer, here's the drill: Lifeguards kick everyone out of the water at 6:00 PM and leave after which many people immediately resume swimming until 8:00 PM when a ranger appears and firmly ejects everyone and doesn 't leave until the parking lot is empty.

Yes it is open from 8 to 8 and 10 to 6 for swimming

About the imperial restaurant. You should not comment.

Monday to Thursday is when their least busy

You may not be able to drive in because the gate may be closed and locked or you may be discouraged by the park police from entering outside opening hours.

Yes.

No it's $15 for New York residents $10 for Jersey residents and it's good to go early because I had a certain time around 10:00 there's a cut-off for vehicles entering the park

It's the same for everyone

Don't think so

I am here. Call them. Not sure if its closed. Perfect day

It was my first time that I went and I find myself, there is a lot of shade, benches to put the food, there are meat grills, games for children, the only problem is that you have to go very early because if the parking lot gets full they won't let you in, I was there at 7 and 5 in the morning and there were already enough people

Yes there is a limit. I try to get there early.

$30 & Up for 1hr.. Prices vary depending on the size of the boat.
