This 6.5-mile, moderately rated hike will take us through the heart of Allamuchy's oak-hickory forests to the spruce-lined banks of the magnificent Deer Pond, where we’ll marvel at the sweeping vista and break for snacks/lunch. This trail is well maintained with sure footing all the way and gradual changes in elevation.
