About this park

Worthington State Forest has some of the most rugged terrain and splendid views in northern New Jersey. Its 22 miles of trails lead to Sunfish Pond, one of New Jersey's Seven Natural Wonders, and to the top of Mount Tammany for a 360-degree view. The forest includes the Dunnfield Creek Natural Area (1,085 acres) and the Sunfish Pond Natural Area (258 acres). Campsites along the Delaware River and Kittatinny Mountains let visitors finish the day by the campfire. It is open daily from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m.
