Welcome to Kittatinny Campground
Kittatinny is family owned and operated by Ruth Jones and her son, Dave. It all started back in 1941 when Ruth's parents, Ernie and Edna Olschewsky, purchased riverfront property, including six canoes and a few rowboats. They rented the boats to fishermen plying the big pool that formed at the foot of Mount Tammany. Situated near the Kittatinny Range of the Appalachian Mountains, this beautiful piece of land was appropriately named "Kittatinny Beach" by Edna, in keeping with the old Indian name meaning "endless mountains." As you paddle down this scenic river, there are always endless breathtaking mountains ahead of you.
One day a customer asked Ernie if he would drive him upstream with a canoe in the back of his pickup truck so he could paddle back downstream with the current. On that day the river trip business was born. Kittatinny started 72 years ago, at a place now known as Kittatinny Point Visitor's Center, with only a few boats. Kittatinny has grown into one of the largest fleets of canoes, rafts, kayaks, and tubes in the world. The river trips today extend over 120 miles of Delaware River, running through New York, Pennsylvania and New Jersey. Two riverfront campgrounds, paintball facilities and zip lines are also part of the family business

"It's more than a canoe trip...It's a 37 year old tradition!!!" writes a member of the Cirelli family.
"It started in 1973 as a weekend outing for a handful of college friends. This year the Cirelli family and friends' canoe trip marks its 38th year. Two-and-a-half decades and three generations of campers make this trip too important a tradition to trust just anybody...and that's why we'll be camping with Kittatinny again."
"Kittatinny's staff, equipment and campground facilities have helped make this a tradition, one that will last into the next century. So if you're on the Delaware and see thirty guys having the time of their lives, stop by and say hello. You can find us at a Kittatinny campground the first weekend in June...every year!!!"
