Biking the Sussex Branch Rail Trail in New Jersey During Fall

Today I’m riding the beautiful Sussex Branch Trail near Kittatinny Ridge in Northwest New Jersey. After finishing the GAP Trail tour, I wanted a local “maintenance ride” — just 10–15 miles to keep the legs fresh — and discovered (or rediscovered!) one of the best rail trails in NJ.   / ithinkthereforeibike   This historic rail bed features: Crushed gravel surface (great for gravel bikes — I’m riding 42mm tires) Scenic slate cuts and rock walls Peak fall foliage views Wildlife sightings (yes… a raccoon!) Smooth, fast riding — no mountain bike required The Sussex Branch Trail runs approximately 21 miles each way, meaning you can get up to 42+ miles out-and-back. I previously rode the section from Waterloo to Newton, and this time I’m exploring another stretch near Warren County and Sussex County. If you live in Northwest Jersey — or anywhere, really — this ride is proof that there’s probably something amazing in your own backyard. I lived here for 30 years and didn’t even know this trail existed.
