High Tor State Park is a 691-acre (2.80 km2) state park[2] on the north edge of the Town of Clarkstown in Rockland County, New York, United States.[5] The park is located on South Mountain, which has two peaks, High Tor and Little Tor.[6] Its highest peak, High Tor, is 797 feet (243 m) high.[7]

Park description

High Tor State Park is intended for day use during the summer months, and contains picnic tables, a pool and showers, hiking trails, and a food concession. The Long Path passes through the park.[8]

The park contains two peaks: High Tor at 797 feet (243 m),[7] and Little Tor at 620 feet (190 m).[9] They are the highest peaks in not only the park, but in all of the Hudson Palisades.[citation needed] The skylines of New York City, Jersey City and Newark are visible to hikers on both peaks.[3]

High Tor was used as a signal point during the American Revolution for the colonists,[3] and was used as an air raid watch during World War II. Famous composer Kurt Weill worked as an air raid warden there.[citation needed]
