This hike traverses the Doris Duke Wildlife Sanctuary, a section of Sterling Forest State Park where hunting is not permitted. It follows the new Doris Duke Trail, which was recently improved, under the auspices of the New York-New Jersey Trail Conference, by volunteers and AmeriCorps crews.

4 miles, 685-feet elevation gain, no scrambles, but still a good workout!
