About
Bergen County's tent camping area in the 1,373-acre Campgaw Mountain Reservation: 16 numbered sites strung along the dead-end stretch of Fyke Road, four of them (sites 2, 3, 9, and 10) with three-sided shelters, and parking pull-offs at the sites. Up to six people per site; the permit holder must be 21 or older; each person may camp no more than two weeks a year. A separate fire permit is needed for campfires. Camping is by county permit, applied for online through the Parks Department's permit system. The park also has marked hiking trails, a disc golf course, an archery range, and a ski area. Pets must be leashed. Open April 1 to November 30.
Fees
$25 per site per night for Bergen County residents, $50 for non-residents, plus a $25 security deposit.
