Irondale Mountain Trail


Project Description:

A trail feasibility study was conducted to develop an overall master plan for a trail system for a 150 acre plus tract on Irondale Mountain. The study area included existing trail segments along the historic Morris Canal as well as a network of abandoned historic mining roads and forest trails. The master plan creates an overall network of trails of various lengths, for users of a variety of abilities, as well as connection to several Borough neighborhoods. Construction documents were developed, and first two miles of trails were constructed, funded by a Morris County Park trail grant. Work products included feasibility study report, construction documents and construction observation.
