About Mohawk River State Park

Now called Mohawk River Nature Preserve, this 105-acre tract sits undeveloped along the Mohawk River. The land has no built facilities or formal attractions, remaining in a natural state adjacent to the riverbank. Its protection preserves the acreage as open space along the waterway for those wanting to see the river up close without added development.

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