There are several routes to the park: take exit 145 from the Garden State Parkway, or opt for the New Jersey Turnpike. Either way, take Main Street to the Edisonia Terrace for the main entrance. Camp at Fort Wadsworth to the southeast or Hackettstown to the west, the latter of which offers a more rural experience.
