The Batona Trail is a long distance trail showcasing the Pine Barrens of southern NJ, stretching from Ong's Hat in Brendan Byrne State Forest, south through Wharton State Forest, and then on to Bass River State Forest, ending at Coal Road.
Along the way, it passes by many lovely rivers, streams, and swamps, the Applie Pie Hill Fire Tower (one of the highest points in the Pine Barrens), historic Batsto Village, and more. Compared to other trails, the Batona Trail can often become monotonous as it's scenery does not vary much, but it is a great nature study for the Pine Barrens region, and an easy hike for those who want to try backpacking for the first time.
