Ramapo River Trce
The 20-acre Baldwin Sanctuary, located off of Ramapo Valley Road, offers a small trail system that will make your pup wag it like he means it. The sniff-tastic trails meander through a forested wetland with plenty of bird life to observe along the way. Trails pass along the Ramapo River where you might spot some fossils along the bank. Parking is very limited on the edge of the road and you may want to arrange to have someone drop you off and pick you up after your adventure. The area is also easy to reach by a canoe from one of the boat landings nearby.
