Walking the Rail Trails at Warbasse Junction

By Bill DeBoer Jr on Nov 22, 2015 6:39:52 PM

The official start of winter and the holidays are just around the corner, but it's never too late in the year to get out and enjoy the beautiful walking trails our county has to offer. There's great joy to be had in a walk in the spring, when the beautiful trees of Sussex County begin to unfurl their green splendor.  It's also wonderful to walk amongst these trees as they radiate the majestic colors of fall.  However, there's also great pleasure to be had in a crisp, cool walk on a clear winter day, when you can see ever bigger and endless spans of a bright blue sky above.

Sussex County Lakeside Hiking on the Paulinskill Valley Trail

By Bill DeBoer Jr on Aug 13, 2015 4:00:00 AM

It seems like fall is right around the corner but there's still plenty of time left in this year to get out and take advantage of the many awesome trails and sights our beautiful county has to offer!  One of these great trails is the Paulinskill Valley Trail.  This rail trail runs 27 miles with a start in  Knowlton Township, NJ and an eventual connection to the Sussex Branch Trail near NJ Route 663.  As such, the trail provides excellent opportunity to cover some pretty serious ground by bike.  For those of you who are looking to take a beautifully scenic walk, this feature focuses on the approximately 2.25-mile stretch of rail bed that runs the length of the Paulinskill Lake; this section can be easily accessed from Sussex County Route 614.  There is a fairly large shoulder area  that makes for easy parking  right at the Route 614 and S Shore Terrace intersection.
