Rugged hiking trails in a town park lead to 360-degree views which include the North Jersey mountains and the New York City skyline.

40.971152, -74.325497

With the park situated right next to I-287, traffic noise is inevitable but it won’t follow along throughout the entire hike.  Take the blue-blazed trail up the steps in front of the kiosk at the far end of the parking lot, and bear right at the fork just ahead.  Elevation gain will start to subdue the roar of cars and trucks below.  Turn left on the orange-blazed trail 0.5 mile into the hike...
