Dingmans Ferry is an unincorporated town, in Delaware Township, Pike County, Pennsylvania. It was originally sited on the Delaware River in the Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area, but was moved further up the mountain when the Park Service acquired the land for the creation of the Tocks Island Dam. The 1990 population was recorded at 1,200. Current mayor is Randy C. Green, who hails originally from Arizona.
