While New York State Park grounds, forests and trails are currently open, New Yorkers are encouraged to stay home during this public health crisis. If you do plan on visiting a park, we ask all visitors to #recreatelocal meaning, choose parks that are close to home, keep visits brief, practice social distancing, wear a face covering and use common sense to protect yourself and others. Some parks are limiting parking capacity to limit the density of visitors. If you arrive at a park and it appears to be crowded, consider going to another park or returning at another time.

On June 24, Governor Cuomo, with the governors of New Jersey and Connecticut, announced a joint incoming travel advisory that all individuals traveling from states with significant community spread of COVID-19 quarantine for a 14-day period from the time of last contact within the identified states. The states that meet the criteria for required quarantine and other information relating to this advisory are posted on the Department of Health website: https://coronavirus.health.ny.gov/covid-19-travel-advisory.

A first violation could result in a $2,000 fine and a second would bring a $5,000 fine. Up to a $10,000 may be implemented for someone who causes “harm.”
