Pyramid Mountain Loop Trail - Taylortown New Jersey Hikes

This hike takes Fido on rocky uphills, downhill rock scrambles, stream crossings, and some of the most impressive glacial boulders in the state. Make sure your dog has tough pads to handle the steep rock scrambles and is in shape to handle the uphills. Humans should wear boots with good ankle support. Bring plenty of water.
