Warren Dunes State Park: What it Is

It blends towering sand dunes, clear blue‑green beaches, forests and wetlands into a year‑round adventure spot.

Highlights

  • Epic sand dunes: Tower Hill rises 240 feet, perfect for climbing, sandboarding or even hang gliding with a permit
  • Three miles of AMAZING beach : crystal‑clear water, deep sand that keeps crowds thin and a dog‑friendly shore at the far end
  • Hiking trails: six miles winding through forest, open dunes and interdunal wetlands, plus winter ski and snowshoe options
  • Two campgrounds: from modern (hookups and hot showers) to semi‑modern, all a short drive from the beach

Good to Know

Bring a cardboard box, trash bag or rent a proper sandboard nearby to sled down the dunes! Sleds work too.

Permitted hang gliding off Tower Hill is a thing here!
