A wide variety of activities is available for visitors to Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area. Enjoy the park with respect for its natural resources, both for your safety and for the protection of these treasures for future generations. View wildlife from a safe distance. Help save the park's wildlife by obeying all speed limits.
Some park roads are steep and narrow.
In poor weather, they may be slick and dangerous, greatly reducing stopping distances. Watch for animals crossing the road, especially at dawn and dusk. Learn more about this region's wildlife by visiting Pennsylvania Game Commission's Publications web page. The Delaware River has strong currents, sharp drop-offs and constantly changing conditions. Do not swim alone and never try to swim across the river.
