Regulations

Each state generally has a unique set of rules and regulations that apply to the use of state parks and other public lands. Below you will find many of the most important rules and regulations to know when visiting these areas. Many of these regulations are listed on the rules-and-regulations pages of the North Carolina State Parks and North Carolina Parks and Recreation websites.

Camping

Litter

Littering is illegal in North Carolina.

Business and Special Activities

Conducting commercial business or activity in any park is prohibited except during events governed by a special-activity permit. Photography or video production for commercial purposes is prohibited unless you have a film permit.

State parks allow for many recreational activities, such as bicycling events, marathons, photo tours, kite-flying contests, club meetings, and so on. However, participants in all such events must acquire a special-activity permit for $35. The permit application is available from the “Forms & Permits” web link at individual park menus or may be obtained from park offices.
