Fishers Peak State Park Management Plan

Development of the first State Park Management Plan for Fishers Peak State Park is currently underway! A draft of the management plan is now available for review. We welcome your input. A general feedback form is available at the bottom of the page and will remain open until December 18, 2026. Please ensure you are using the open form, as the previous feedback form is now closed.

Building on previous planning efforts, this plan will serve as an overarching guide for the park over the next ten years, outlining short- and long-term visions for visitor, recreation, resource, and infrastructure management.

The completed plan will:

• Serve as a policy document and point of reference for current and future park staff, other partnering agencies, elected officials, and interested members of the public.
• Help inform future use and development and visitor recreation experiences.
• Guide management of existing natural and cultural resources.
• Provide a framework for monitoring and maintaining state park resources.
• Identify park enhancement opportunities, including possible facility upgrades, new park facilities, restoration and rehabilitation projects, and other important management initiatives.
• Help inform future budget allocations and annual funding requests.
