Kanaskat-Palmer State Park is a camping park on a forested plateau next to the rushing whitewaters of the Green River. Have a heart-pounding rafting adventure or fish, hike and enjoy a leisurely campout.
Rafting and kayaking on the Green River is for experts only. Watercraft launch is by hand only at no cost.
A recreational license is required for fishing and shellfish harvesting at Washington State Parks. For regulations, fishing season information, or to purchase a recreational license, visit the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife.
The local fire station uses a siren to summon volunteer firefighters for duty. The siren may be activated at any hour of the day or night and can create noisy conditions for campers and visitors. There are also BNSF tracks near the park and campers may hear train noise, although this is rare.
