Lake Hopatcong stretches nine miles and covers about 2,500 acres, making it the largest lake in New Jersey and a centerpiece of Hopatcong State Park. Its broad waters draw outdoor enthusiasts throughout the year, offering places to swim, fish, and launch boats. Along the shore, a large picnic area with grills, volleyball and basketball courts, a soccer field, and playground equipment helps make a day at the lake feel easy and active. Whether you’re dipping a line, splashing in the water, or gathering with family and friends, Hopatcong State Park’s wide open space and variety of activities make it one of the region’s most enduring outdoor destinations.
