Operating Hours & Seasons

PLEASE NOTE: In areas the CDC identifies as a "HIGH" COVID-19 community level, masks are required for everyone in all NPS buildings, regardless of vaccination status. In most low and medium COVID-19 community level areas, masks are optional, but visitors should follow signs and instructions from park staff and volunteers. Visitors and employees are always welcome to wear a mask if it makes them more comfortable.
At this time, Morris County (New Jersey) is identified by the CDC as being in a LOW COVID-19 community level, therefore masks are currently optional for everyone in Morristown NHP buildings. This guidance will be updated every week on Friday morning.
