High Point State Park

Probably seasonal falls, we have quite a few in the area. They are fairly easy to find using a topography map. Usually best to leave the "hidden" treasures as hidden as possible. The more effort people have to put forth is a big determining factor in how well they respect LNT.

It’s perfect right now

Yes, pets must be leashed and under control of the owner at all times. They are not permitted in the swimming lake or on the sand but are permitted on the grassy area at the beach. We also offer pet friendly campsites!

Yes, it is safe. Please register with park ranger/visitor control. They will also help with providing recommend Ed camp sites

Yes.is open.

Yes

Yes, there are alot of grills available

To the top of the mountain or tower? I would rate either of them a 4 on a rough day. Not to steep of an incline, paths are relatively clear and marked. There are some more difficult trails littered throughout the park but the one to the momument (and the monument itself) aren't actually as difficult as they are tedious.

Make sure to check Airbnb's in New York State by Port Jervis and Pennsylvania by the Delaware Water Gap. Both are close to this park.

No

Yes

Yes, near the monument. However, there isn't one in the campground.

Yes. You need a NJ Fishing License

I've never needed to have a printed copy of it.

Yes, bring plenty of water

Yes.

I think you can just go in if it's before dusk

As mentioned, you can view the Vista of New York, Pennsylvania and New Jersey. If you enjoy camping, there are numerous sites at High Point Forest and Stokes Forest.

Beautiful. Was there yesterday.

Try the AT hiker lot just 1/4 miles south of the office.

These are the only ones within park limits. But some may be close by at the neighboring sites

On trip advisor if you go to photos theres a guy name nicholas p standing in front of a beautiful waterfall. I cleaned some muck out of the spring by rutherford shelter and have been drinking from it unfiltered with no issues. I am also planning on doing conservation work and planting spruce and pine to create microclimates that were lost do to the hemlock trees dying enjoy :)

No charge starting today...

Yes it is open. I went last weekend, it was bit crowded but not like people jammed in one place. You'll find plenty of place to sit and relax. Lake area get busy pretty fast!

The rutherford shelter area has some star gazing areas theres also a swamp behind it that has great views of the sky i would register and tell the rangers your section hiking you can park by the park office but you need to get a permit or youl get ticketed enjoy

On the right side shortly after the toll booth. Look for the parking lot.

Thats a perfect place. You can drive upto the monument and the views.

Yes

They were on the 4th

Yes, it is.

Yes you can do it definitely

Yes they are open

It's open to the public now

You can drive up to the path to the monument, but the monument itself was not open when I visited in December.

Lake Marcia has a beach, bathrooms, and a consession stand. It is a little cold right now in February - maybe try cross country skiing now and save the swimming for summer!

No, but campsites are a short ride away!

I attended a wedding there. The couple got a permit from the park and had their wedding there.

Yes the roads there are in good condition but do check their website or even call them to be sure it's something they allow.

No.

At this time park entrance fees are only charged from Memorial Day through Labor Day. More info can be found here: https://njparksandforests.com/parks/feeschedule.htm

You can not use any flotation devices in the water. The only approved use are US Coast Guard Approved life jackets.

Yes you can on leash only

When you first enter it's the first right. Theres a parking lot. Walk to the bath house right there

Not sure, maybe check the website.

Often see buses in the beach parking lot

There is a sign when you're walking to the beach that says dogs aren't allowed. It also has a list of other regulations.

Yes

It depends on if it is a dry season with a high fire danger

As with any park that is not specifically a DOG park. Off leash is not allowed, definitely not safe & you would most likely have a problem with someone confronting you about it.

Yes
