One New York adventure.

New York State Parks manages parks across the state. DEC manages the Adirondack and Catskill campgrounds in this directory. Start with the agency that manages your destination, then confirm the exact facility and dates.

About this directory and its sources

Compiled October 21, 2026 from all 194 entries in the current State Parks finder and all 55 entries in DEC's campground and day-use list. Some entries are trails, marinas, or sub-areas of a park, so 249 listings does not mean 249 separate state parks. Camping metadata are matched where possible from the state facility inventory; the campground filter is a planning aid, not a confirmation of current access, season dates, or reservations. Private campgrounds and summer camps are outside this directory.
