Blydenburg County Park

This is the best park on Long Island; Went today for the first time the trail is beautiful. By the water the whole time so it’s easy to navigate but you should def use a pdf map. The elevation changes and twists and turns make it super fun to traverse. Took me 3 hours to finish so plan accordingly food water ect. You for sure need hiking boots there is a lot of roots you go over, some mud for sure, and the elevation changes are real, this is not a flat terrain. I will for sure be coming back here. It was great it felt like it’s own world because the area is so big it goes on forever.

This is a great county park. Only reason I did not give it five stars is you have to still pay for a one day pass, even with a green key and an empire state pass. But it has camping grounds, a boating dock, and tons of trails to hike. Definitely better than other state parks like Belmont state park and a few others I have been to.

Beautiful sense of unspoiled nature, many paths to hike. Paths are sometimes very uneven and affected by weather, so hikers should wear good outdoor footwear and be steady on your feet. Carry out your refuse, no trashcan. Very dog-friendly. Recommend bringing a map or using the QR code digital resources throughout park; easy to get lost if you don't know the paths well.

I only walked one mile out and back of the blue trail but it was really pretty on a May weekday afternoon. I definitely plan on returning and seeing more. Dog-friendliness: Couple of decent sized dog parks

Really beautiful park with nice trails around the lake. Lots and lots of swans, some of which were flying today. Trails are well marked and are probably the most naturish on Long Island. Very little noise deeper into the trails. The loop was about 6 miles, half of which I ran. They rent boats as well which is cool.

One of the nicest trails I've ever walked. Peaceful and beautiful surroundings that will help you de-stress. My friend and I walked the entire nearly 6 mile trail around the pond and it took us about 3 hours. We saw quite a few deer observing us from the woods.

Went for mixed reasons-one of us walked the blue trail, 2 of us stayed near the lake & walked part of the blue trail. Park is actually closed-no rest rooms or any other service. Sparsely used, lots of dog walkers. Good for walkers & joggers.

Very clean and well maintained park...loved kayaking and fishing there.

Not a good experience camping there. We had reservations for Thursday through Sunday. We left Friday afternoon. Seems as though there are a lot of drifters staying there. Picnic table at the campsite was absolutely gross and broken. There isn’t much to do right around the camping section. The bathrooms are old and run down. The showers looked scary. Very disappointing.

Nice trails to walk. Decent views of the lake. There's campgrounds but require reservations during the in-season. Playground for kids is decent but slightly weathered out.
