This is a summertime short hike designed to limit exertion, but can be slightly expanded when weather conditions become favorable. In inclement weather, the hike will be limited to 3+ miles on relatively flat terrain.

NOTE: Hacklebarney Farm Cider Mill is a regionally famous farm store offering fresh food and cider that is located within a short walking distance from the parking location.

Bring plenty of water and snacks, and appropriate seasonal items (sun- and insect-protection in summer, and crampons in winter). Day-of-hike-only phone: 973-704-7362.
