Solitude and scenery among wintertime offerings at state parks …
Early winter is a wonderful time for a trip to a New Jersey state park or forest, where there is no shortage of activities such as climbing a mountain for stunning and unobstructed panoramas, hiking secluded trails dusted with snow, or enjoying the peaceful serenity of an ice-encrusted lake. This special time of year – with the trees bare, the grasses brown, and the ever-present possibility of snow – provides visitors with ample opportunities to seek a secluded place for soaking in the beauty of our parks and forests.
