Hiking

During the initial decades of the Watchung Reservation's existence, individuals enjoying the park had the opportunity to engage in swimming activities at a designated beach along the lakeshore situated behind you. Additionally, there was a facility at this location where visitors could conveniently change into their swimwear – a bathhouse. The lake hosted aquatic carnivals that attracted a substantial number of participants, involving events such as swimming and boating.
