The Middle Delaware National Scenic and Recreational River Primitive Campsites offer 62 campsites located along the Delaware River running through the Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area. This part of the Delaware River is relatively unspoiled as it travels through the rural landscape. A stay at one of these campsites will give you your fill of nature; you will be able to sleep under the stars, hear the birds chirping, listen to tree frogs, hear the river flowing by, and hopefully see some wildlife along the way.
Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area is instituting a zonal reservation system for primitive river campsites within the park. The zone reservation system will allow visitors to purchase a permit within a designated zone and then select a campsite within that zone upon arrival. This maintains the freedom and spontaneity of choosing a site while on the river that some visitors enjoy, while also offering the predictability that others are seeking. More information, along with reservations can be found here at recreation.gov.
