About Higley Flow State Park

Higley Flow State Park covers 1,115 acres in the Adirondack foothills, on Higley Flow and Warm Creek Flow, two reservoirs of the Raquette River. Campsites are spread out and separated by pines, and a guarded sandy beach opens in summer. The river is good for canoeing and fishing, and the Beaver Pond Nature Trail has signs explaining six habitats. In winter volunteers groom more than 10 miles of trails for cross-country skiing, snowshoeing and snowmobiling, and the Higley Trails Lodge has heated restrooms. Day use is $7 per vehicle in peak season.
