Hiking Watchung Reservation in Winter
Hiking the Sierra Trail, an 11-mile loop around the perimeter of the Watchung Reservation.
Trail Blogs
Trail Blogs are casual posts about a particular hike, sometimes with a seasonal focus. They don’t contain the detailed step-by-step instructions and information that our hike guides feature.
For example – the hike guide for Mt. Tammany has detailed instructions but also links to the multiple Trail Blogs about our various hikes up Mt. Tammany over the years (i.e. “Mt. Tammany and Sunfish Pond in the Fall“).
Four Birds Trail – North Section
Hiking the northern section of the Four Birds Trail in the Pequannock Watershed.
“Mind the Gap” – Mt Tammany and Mt Minsi in One Day
These hikes are normally done one or the other but do them in one day to Double Your Summits, Double Your Fun.
Buttermilk Falls, Crater Lake, Hemlock Pond… and a bear hiking the AT.
Encountering a bear on the way to Crater Lake from Buttermilk Falls.
Long Pond Ironworks in September
Pleasant trail with an overlook plus building ruins, mine pits, scrambling, and crossing the NJ/NY border.
Terrace Pond South
This is just a pretty trail, one of the best in Jersey really. A nice variation between easy, pleasant forest walking and rocky scrambling areas, a lot of nice trail packed into 5 miles.
Apple Pie Hill Fire Tower and the Batona Trail
The view from the fire tower makes this pine barrens hike very unique.
