Whetstone Gulf State Park is built in and around a three-mile-long gorge cut into the eastern edge of the Tug Hill Plateau. The gorge is one of the most spectacular scenic vistas east of the Rocky Mountains. The park features wooded campsites, a scenic picnic area along Whetstone Creek, a man-made swimming area, and trails for hiking and cross-country skiing, one of which circles the gorge. Above the gorge is Whetstone Reservoir, popular for canoeing and stocked with tiger muskie and large-mouth bass for fishermen.
Whetstone Gulf State Park is located in Lewis County, on the border of the Towns of Turin and Martinsburg. The park is on the edge of the Tug Hill Plateau, south of Lowville.
Visitors will enjoy the beach, fishing, hiking, hunting, snowmobiling, snowshoeing, and cross-country skiing.
The park offers a beach, campsites (some of which are electric), dumping stations, showers, a nature trail, pavilions, picnic tables, and a playground.
