The best camping near Salt Springs State Park guide

Overview

About

A little park that packs a big punch, Salt Springs State Park plays host to massive, ancient hemlock trees, a rocky gorge, and three scenic waterfalls. Fish for native and stocked trout in both Silver Creek and Fall Brook, hike the beautiful trails that traverse the park and neighboring lands, and pitch your tent along the banks of Silver Creek and let the rushing water sing you to sleep. Grab a Birds of Salt Springs State Park checklist before exploring the park, and look for the 150 species of birds that pass through the park. At just 400 acres, it’s a tiny slice of eastern paradise.

When to go

The best time to visit Salt Springs State Park is during the spring and fall when the weather is mild and the natural scenery is at its peak. Summer offers lush greenery, but be prepared for busier trails and warmer temperatures. Winter can be harsh, with snow and ice possibly limiting access to certain areas of the park.

Know before you go

  • Check the weather forecast and dress appropriately for the season, as conditions can change rapidly.
  • Be aware of park hours, typically from 8:30am to 5pm, and plan your visit accordingly.
  • Stay on marked trails to protect the park's delicate ecosystems and your own safety.
  • Remember to pack out all trash and leave the park as pristine as you found it.
  • Cell service may be limited, so download maps and information before your visit.
