List of New York state parks
Template:Short description Template:Use mdy dates
This is a list of state parks in the U.S. state of New York. Also listed are state golf courses, seasonal hunting areas, and former state parks.
In New York, state parks are managed by the Office of Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation (OPRHP), with the exception of the Adirondack and Catskill Parks which are managed by the Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC). Outside of the Adirondacks and the Catskills, the state parks department is organized into eleven regions:
- Niagara
- Allegany
- Genesee
- Finger Lakes
- Central
- Taconic
- Palisades
- Long Island
- Thousand Islands
- Saratoga/Capital District
- New York City
Forest preserve
The largest parks in New York are the Adirondack Park, at Template:Convert; and the Catskill Park, at Template:Convert. Together they comprise the New York Forest Preserve, properties that must be kept "Forever Wild" according to Article 14 of the New York Constitution. Both parks are managed by DEC; the Adirondack Park is managed by the Adirondack Park Agency, as well.

The following sortable tables list current and former New York state parks, respectively, all 'owned' or managed by the OPRHP, as of 2015. Some OPRHP-'owned' parks are managed primarily or in part by other agencies, through lease or partnership agreements.<ref name=NYSA_NYSP_2015/> The second table lists three former New York state parks that have been transferred to other entities.
