This is a nice park separately located from where the deer Mountain parkers. It is located closer to where the 7-Eleven is across the street. There is 1 Main Rd. that traverses the whole park although there are several places you can pull off and park in parking lots. Hiking here is a Good distance as there are many places you will see along your hike.
Among the things you'll see other than the regular birds you also see turkeys and deer. ( Especially since Clifton in its greed for taxes has allowed half the mountain to be torn down ruining the habitat for the deer.)
Rife camp park is a great place to get some fresh air year round. There's plenty of parking in many different lots and the trails are nice and serene. This place gets less foot traffic than the nearby garret mountain reservation, but it's just as nice. There's also plenty of wildlife to liven up the place.
The observatory at the top is a great place to visit and look out over Patterson and Clifton. The observatory is something I've never actually been in as it is never open when I go up there. There is even a meeting once a month or so for UFO interested people.
No Dogs Allowed!! Seriously? It's completely forested!! New Jersey Parks need to completely revaluate their "rules." We're not a bunch of kindergartners or preschoolers . . .
You can see New York City from the observatory, and the trails are very nice to walk. We didn't make it to the lake, but even the small pond has wildlife, and the cliffs surrounding it are fun to climb. Final plus: when we went in autumn, it was so fun to swish through all the leaves on the trail!
One of the Best Park around here! For Hiking,Jogging,Walk,this is perfect place! One this I really like that it's really nice And Quite.
If you start at the bottom you can take all the way up along the fence line by the reservoir which will eventually take you all the way up to the edge of the cliff where they have built the condominiums. There's also a pond here and an observatory at the very top.
