Harriman State Park


Harriman State Park, located in Rockland and Orange counties, is the second-largest park in the parks system, with 31 lakes and reservoirs, 200 miles of hiking trails, two beaches, two public camping areas, a network of group camps, miles of streams and scenic roads, and scores of wildlife species, vistas and vantage points. Harriman State Park's major facilities include Lakes Welch, Sebago, Tiorati and Silvermine, the Anthony Wayne Recreation Area, Sebago Cabins and Beaver Pond Campgrounds.

Harriman is appropriate for all Scouts, but note that we must hike in about 1.5 miles along rocky terrain to the campsite, where there is no potable water (we carry it in) or restroom.  So, pack light and lace up your hiking boots!
