Walking trails, Manhattan skyline views
Mills Reservation spans 157 acres across Cedar Grove and Montclair with four major walking trails plus smaller paths through forest; one trail leads to a cliff overlook of the New York skyline.
Free · Outdoor · Quiet-friendly
One of the main trails ends at Quarry Point, a scenic cliff overlook with views toward Manhattan.
The park attracts migratory birds in spring (warblers) and fall (hawks), making it good for bird-watching walks.
No buildings or facilities on site; bring water and plan accordingly for a nature walk.
