SKYLANDS New Jersey’s northwest is where nature meets adventure. Imagine rolling hills, lush forests and sparkling lakes beckoning outdoor enthusiasts in every season. Hit the ski slopes in the winter or cycle the centuries-old route of Old Mine Road—one of the oldest continuously used roads in the U.S.—renowned for its fall-colored leaves and scenery in autumn. Marina-hop the shoreline of Lake Hopatcong in the summer, or catch your breath at the top of High Point State Park on a brisk spring hike. The Skylands Region offers a serene escape from the hustle and bustle. THIS PAGE: CRYSTAL SPRINGS RESORT/CRYSTAL SPRINGS RESORT Preserved Beauty & High Adventures 32 2026 New Jersey Travel Guide
