About Stone Mountain State Park

A granite dome rises within the park's 14,353 acres, spanning both Wilkes and Alleghany counties. The park protects this exposed rock formation along with the surrounding forested land, giving visitors a large tract to explore. Its size places it among the more extensive state-managed properties in the region, covering land across two counties rather than one.

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