Delaware Water Gap

This is a great loop hike with a big reward to effort ratio featuring two waterfalls – including the tallest in Pennsylvania – and dramatic views along a cliff of the winding Delaware River, Kittatinny Mountain, and even High Point in New Jersey.

Panoramic views from Catfish Fire Tower, ridgeline views along the Appalachian Trail, a pond with beaver activity, and rhododendron tunnels.

Mount Tammany offers perhaps the best view in New Jersey, overlooking the winding Delaware River and Mt. Minsi on the Pennsylvania side. Park in the Dunnfield Creek parking lot in the Delaware Water Gap and look for the Tammany Trail sign. Take the Red Dot Trail up and the Blue Dot Trail down for a 3.5 mile hike. Expect to have a lot of company on this trail.

Dramatic views of the Delaware River and Mt. Tammany, cascades, and a waterfall make this Mt. Minsi hike one of the best in the area.
