WASHINGTON CROSSING STATE PARK, NJ, FIDDLERS CREEK, BALD PATE, 8 MILES Morning h

Meet at 7:45 am Hike starts promptly at 8:00 am
Join us for a 8-mile moderate paced hike at picturesque Washington Crossing State Park New Jersey, Fiddlers creek and Bald Pate mountain loop.

Even though we start out on the canal, this hike is harder than my regular hikes.

We'll do about 600 ft total elevation. There are creek crossings. If you use polls bring them, their good for the creek crossings.
We will hike on the canal, wooded, meadow, some paved trails and neighborhood roads. Your shoes may get wet. The trail does have sections that can be a bit wet, muddy, and uneven, Wooded trails can be rocky. We will stop for a short snack break little more than halfway. Bring sturdy footwear and water.

Location Meet at the Washington Crossing Bridge Parking lot in NJ.
