About Haw River State Park

The Haw River gives this 1,485-acre park its name, though the land spans both Guilford and Rockingham counties rather than sitting in one place alone. The park houses the Summit Environmental Education Center, and its recreational offerings are limited compared to the acreage involved. It sits off North Carolina Highway 150 in Browns Summit.

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