East Fork State Park Primitive Camp Area

East Fork State Park Primitive Camp Area offers five designated backcountry camping sites along the Backpacking Trail (16 miles) and Steven Newman Worldwalker Perimeter Trail (33 miles), accessible only by foot with free permits required.

Each primitive site features a fire ring, horse tie-offs, and adirondack shelters at camps 1 and 2, with a one-night limit for transient hikers.

Located on William H Harsha Lake's north side near Batavia, the park provides excellent access to paddling and fishing via multiple boat ramps and a 1,200-foot beach area in the main campground.
