Beautiful view. Worth the hike. Great for your athletic dog. Easy to Moderate hike for hikers. Could be tough for beginners as the elevation is slightly steep.

We park in the Ringwood Rec. department field parking lot across the street. There is a house across the way and the trail begins to the right of the house. Be careful not to miss the red trail. If you stay on the red triangle and green trail it is a longer and more strenuous hike. The red trail is hard to find, it’s spray painted on the trees not the typical metal rectangles you see on most trails.But the view you get is breathtaking! We saw two bald eagles, chipmunks, and woodpeckers along our walk. It’s definitely a hard trail so be prepared for very steep terrain and loose rocks on the way down. The top is flat, we always bring a snack.

Favorite mountain in Ringwood! I love the views and the vibe and Ive been hiking this for years and its great for a relaxing afternoon and on the weekend

Quite, and beautiful view.

Stonetown circular is a difficult trail with amazing views of the Wanaque reservoir and the surrounding area.

My favorite trail to hike up. Beautiful scenery the whole way up and astounding views at the top

Strenuous hike to the summit. I would go again. Beautiful views all the way up. Bring extra water.

Nice hike. Trail is in good shape. Probably not for beginners or little kids as there are a few steep spots. My dog handled it fine. Views are limited.

Me and my father could not find a path up that wasnt labeled “private property”. Does anyone know where to park and where to hike up? We searched for a way up for about and hour and couldn’t find it. Please let me know a parking area and way up ASAP.

Short and steep with an amazing payoff. The entire (out and back) is only 2 miles or so, but you will work for it! Views from the top are amazing. You can see the entire reservoir, into the highlands, and usually a glimpse of the city. It has EXTREMELY limited parking (only enough room for two cars or so) on the side of Stonetown. Put a Hiking, will be back at Xtime sign in your windshield so Watershed security knows its not just a random car.You can park at the ballfield on Mary Roth, but Im not sure if its technically allowed so do so at your own risk. This also means you will need to walk along Stonetown (very busy road) for a bit so not recommended for people with kids or pets.

The trail up is by the fields. theres a red arrow on the road pointing towards the mountain. follow the red markers on the trees on the right side the view soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo gooddddd there is a 3 peack but no view its so good u will love it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Do the stone town circular or the out and back for some of the more challenging hikes in new Jersey
