About this park

Camel's Hump was first named by the Waubanaukee Indians and was later called Saddle Mountain. Samuel de Champlain's explorers called it the resting lion in the 1600s. The name Camel's Rump appeared on Ira Allen's 1798 map and became Camel's Hump in 1830. The park began as a gift of 1,000 acres, including the summit, from Colonel Joseph Battell. In 1911 care of the mountain passed to the State Forester, who kept it in a primitive state. The address is approximate, and the phone is the Vermont State Parks central office.
