Jamaica State Park sits on more than 750 acres located half a mile from Jamaica, Vermont, along the West River. This river’s diversity draws both bait and fly fishermen who troll the slow water and wade the shallow ripples for the river’s abundant rainbow trout and smallmouth bass.

Once a year, whitewater enthusiasts are also drawn here thanks to the water released from the Ball Mountain Dam. The park’s campground accommodates RV and tent camping, picnicking, and swimming at Salmon Hole. A picturesque hiking trail carves its way along the West River, branching towards Hamilton Falls.
