Access ProgramsIf you plan to frequent the state parks often, consider purchasing an Empire Passport, an annual pass to the state's parks and recreational facilities. New York State residents 62 years old or older qualify for the Golden Park Program, which allows free access to state parks on non-holiday weekdays. And the Access Pass provides free access to all state parks, historic sites, and certain recreational facilities to residents with permanent disabilities. Picking PlantsPlease remember that, unlike in some states, picking, digging, or cutting down plants is illegal in New York state parks.
