Hike at South Mountain Reservation

There are many trails to choose from, whether you want to take the tiny tots on the Fairy Trail or get some serious cardio on one of the challenging trails.

Also, consider building a fairy house for the Fairy Trail: Fairy Trail – South Mountain Conservancy

Let’s meet at the Locust Grove Parking Lot, Millburn, NJ 07041, South Mountain Reservation, 197 Glen Ave, Millburn, NJ 07041.

From east of the park (westbound) on I-78: Take exit 50 B “Millburn” “Maplewood”. At the end of the ramp, you must go right. Drive through 3 traffic lights, not counting the one at the end of the ramp. At the fourth light (Millburn Ave.), turn left. Drive to the second traffic light (the road makes a turn to the right and becomes a one-way street called Essex Ave.).

Turn right onto Lackawanna Place, go under the RR tracks, and you come almost immediately to Glen Ave. Across the street and a little to the right is a driveway entering the park with a sign “Locust Grove”.
