3790 Department of Parks, Recreation
Infrastructure Overview

The system consists of 279 parks, beaches, trails, wildlife areas, open spaces, off-highway vehicle areas, and historic sites. Parks is responsible for approximately 1.6 million acres of land, including over 339 miles of coastline, 974 miles of lake, reservoir and river frontage, approximately 15,000 campsites and alternative camping facilities, and 4,456 miles of non-motorized trails.

Over the past five years Parks has expended approximately $122 million to develop and expand the state park system. Parks has accepted gifts and other donations of property and historic structures at no cost to the state when those donations make programmatic sense.
