With more than 1,000 miles of trails to explore, New Jersey will surprise you with the variety and abundance of its natural places - the beaches of Cape may, Sandy Hook and Holgate, the lush countryside of the Highlands, and the challenging mountainous terrain of the Appalachian Trail and Palisades. This handy book includes a locator map and highlights chart for each walk and lists of hiking tips and trail safety.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Fine Trail Companion, December 15, 1999
By A Customer
Anyone who has even the most basic understanding of the woods and of hiking will find this book a fine companion for a hike in NJ. The author has a nicely literary style (pretty rare for this genre), and gives equal time discussing geology, flora, fauna, and history. There are a number of new and interesting hikes, not just the "same old" ones that are so commonly written up. The maps are also very good. Scherer also has a lot of interesting insights on ecological matters. All in all, it's a book that should become a standard for New Jersey outdoor lovers.

5.0 out of 5 stars Nature Walks in NJ: A Guide to the Best Trails from the High, November 29, 1999
By Aubrey Fletcher (Northern New Jersey) - See all my reviews
From one nature lover to another: I've done a few hikes in this book and I plan to do more, these are the best hikes ever. The layout of the book is superb, and the descriptions of the hikes as well as the trail markings, are accurate and easy to follow. I had no trouble finding my way along the trails, even late in the day. This book really does guide you to the best hikes in NJ. I recommend the Terrace Pond hike, its a 10!

5.0 out of 5 stars An informative guide to some of New Jersey's hiking trails., July 16, 1999
By rekahn@sprynet.com (Vernon, N.J.) - See all my reviews
The book is very informative and useful. Hiking directions are precise and up to date. Information on local flora and fauna are given for each hike, as well as geological structures that are present. Local history is also given for many of the hikes, which are insightful and interesting

3.0 out of 5 stars Marked vs Unnmarked Trails
Beware: The author has not indicated the quality of markings within these trails. On my wife's and my first outing we chose an EASY trail. Read more
