Terrace Pond and Paulinskill Valley Trail,
Terrace Pond – West, Circular, North
Rocky scrambles, a pretty pond, a floating bridge, and a ladder packed into 5 scenic miles.
Have you ever crossed Terrace Pond’s floating bridge? It’s on this route and replaced a dicey water crossing. This nearby ladder was added to help with a rock scramble.
5.2 miles round trip. This is 1 of 4 hike guides we have to Terrace Pond.
Passaic County, NJ.
Paulinskill Valley Trail, Upper
Hike, bike, or jog a shady rail-trail along the Paulins Kill river from Warbasse Junction to Cedar Ridge Road.
Easy hiking, but for biking the surface is a bit more rugged than other NJ rail-trails such as the D&R Canal or Columbia Trail.
This is the upper section of the trail that was featured last month. The guide describes a 22-mile round trip route but you can turn around at any time. The entire PVT is 27 miles one-way.
Warren County, New Jersey
