Heckscher State Park has more than a million visitors a year. Twenty miles of trails attract hikers, bicycle and cross-country skiers. Swimmers can use the Great South Bay. There are picnic areas, a boat launch ramp, playing fields, and a playground.
Attention Boaters! The park has completed a dredging project that has made the boat launch channel safe and passable.
3 pavilions are available by Permit Only.
