The state park offers great hiking trails, waterfalls, and a scenic river with rocks and streams. You can go for a walk on groomed paths or hike up some great rocky trails. The atmosphere is perfect for a family-friendly escape into nature or for a challenging cardio hike/run. There are a ton of picnic tables throughout the park. They also like the well-marked trails. Just know which side of the stream is the way back to the parking lot.

Beautiful and Refreshing Escape into Nature We visited Hacklebarney State Park for a half-day trip, and it was absolutely worth it! The trails are well-shaded, making it perfect for an afternoon hike, and the sound of the Black River running alongside you is so calming. The small waterfalls and cascades along the way add a really scenic touch. The park is very family-friendly — not too crowded, clean, and with plenty of spots to stop for photos or just enjoy the peaceful surroundings. We also loved that it’s free to enter and close to farms where you can stop for fresh cider or ice cream afterward. A hidden gem in New Jersey for anyone looking for nature, water, and a refreshing break!
