    There are lots of glacial oddities that are fun to look at, as well as a scenic route by the river and a view of the Manhattan skyline. It does get quite rocky and the ascent can be difficult at times, but it's very shady and is a beautiful place to be. To see most of what the trail has to offer, it may take about 4 hours. Dog and kid friendly. See more..

    Get to the parking lot very early or very late as it can become traffic jam. We went at likely the most ideal time of year when the whether was still hot, but the leaves were starting to change. The colors were just changing and vibrant and there was plenty of lush green. We took many different trails, hiking up Lookout, enjoying the forest, then circling the lake and finally heading up to the Stone Tower. The stone tower was the biggest disappointment, only because the areas been trashed by those who visit the park casually. Will go back, maybe in the snows. See more..

    I was lead here geocaching or I would never have known. You can easily drive past the entrance. I really enjoyed the hike. The trail is minimal but clear. The Highlands trail runs through here on its way to the Delaware River in Riegelsville. Off Mine road there is a good sized parking lot with a kiosk and trail maps. I have not seen another hiker while there. It is quiet and peaceful and all downhill. Be prepared to walk back up to the parking lot or have a ride waiting at the bottom. Note that this area has black bear so keep alert. I have not encountered any but certainly would not be surprised. I try to make enough noise that they know I'm coming. See more..
