Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area is a protected national recreation area along the Delaware River in Pennsylvania and New Jersey. Over a length of 64 km there is an impressive landscape in the middle of a densely populated region with a natural river course, forests, lakes and the mountain gap, the Delaware Water Gap, in the south where the river flows between the 'Blue Mountain' and 'Kittatinny Mountain' ' breaks through.
Since the 1930s there have been plans to build a dam on the Delaware River at Tocks Island. The reservoir should be 64 km long and approximately 1.6 km wide. Over the decades, the local population was relocated and the land was acquired by the federal government. From the mid-1960s onwards, resistance to the plans began to emerge. Finally in 1975 the project was canceled due to environmental concerns and costs. The land was handed over to the National Park Service for management, and the Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area, originally intended as an area around the reservoir, became a 283 square km park along the natural river.
In 2021, a proposal was submitted to convert the recreation area into a full-fledged national park.
