Introduced by the National Parks, B.A.R.K. Ranger is an initiative for pets and their owners to establish and practice good behaviors. When at Fairy Stone State Park, pets are encouraged to join their owners on their adventures. To become a B.A.R.K. Ranger, you must take a picture of your pup doing 2/3 of these activities and show them to a ranger to receive your B.A.R.K. Ranger certificate for free: take a hike, hunt for fairy stones, and/or visit the historic iron mine. Download your very own copy of the brochure before you visit or pick up a copy at the Visitor Center or front office.
