About Franny Reese State Park

Named for a conservationist who fought to preserve the Hudson River shoreline from development, this land was set aside to protect that view and the wooded hillside above the river. The 251-acre property sits within the Town of Lloyd and is managed by Scenic Hudson as part of the Palisades Interstate Park system, linking it to a network of protected river lands rather than standing as an isolated tract.

Hours, fees, camping, reservations and closures are set by the park and change often. Check the official park site before you go.
