Campsite Selection
Primitive tent sites and lean-tos are available on a first-come, first-served basis and cannot be reserved. If you find a tent site or lean-to with no people or gear, then you can camp there.
If not using a designated primitive tent site, your tent must be at least 150 feet from a water body, road, or trail. Do not camp in areas posted with "Camping Prohibited."

Camping for more than three nights or with 10 or more people requires a permit from a Forest Ranger. Call 518-897-1300 to get the name and contact information for the local ranger. Please observe all State Land Camping and Hiking Rules.
Black bears are present throughout the Adirondacks and Catskills. Campers should store all food, garbage and toiletries in a bear-resistant canister or food hang. Bear-resistant canisters are required in the Eastern High Peaks Wilderness.

Tips to Leave No Trace
Removing plants, rocks, fossils, or artifacts from state lands without a permit is illegal.
Observe and enjoy wildlife and plants but do not disturb.
Carry out what you carry in.
Use pit privies provided near popular camping areas and trailheads. If none are available, dispose of human waste by digging a hole 6"-8" deep at least 150 feet from water or campsites. Cover with leaves and soil. View a how-to video DEC's YouTube channel(link is external).
Collect and bury pet waste away from water, trails, and camp sites.
Keep your pet under control and restrain it on a leash when others approach.
If using soap, make sure you are more than 150 feet from water such as a river or lake.
