Thank you! I'm in Parsippany and need new things to explore/do and this is just PERFECT. Thank you. Anything I should know beforehand? I'm just a solo person

I left about 6 years ago I'm excited to be coming back I know ppl post on the NJ hiking sub but there are groups on meetup. If you're new to hiking get good shoes a comfortable bag and a Pocket first aid kit. Always tick check doesn't matter if it's winter anymore you need to do it and get soap for poison ivy. When I lived in par I would also go to Ringwood and ramapo, ramapo is great from the bottom lot to check out ruins but the top lot is faster. Also there are great trails off 9f Clinton rd, west of Clinton rd is waywayanda which is also great. You're in the middle where nothing is too far
