NPS GRAPHIC Before you come to see us.... Many areas of Gateway were affected by Hurricane Sandy. While most of the park has re-opened, but a few areas are still closed. Before heading to any area within park boundaries, please call or check to make sure than the area has reopened to the public. This information can be found on either the Plan Your Visit page or the home page of this website. The National Park Service values your safety above all other concerns. For your safety, please respect the closure of park areas until they are deemed safe to reopen. Click on a map below to see maps for that unit.
