Hiking the Woods of Wenonah Trails: Wenonah Lake to Comey’s Lake Loop

Hiking the Woods of Wenonah Trails: Wenonah Lake to Comey’s Lake Loop

The Woods of Wenonah Trail System is a network of easy, scenic trails in Wenonah, NJ, totaling just under 6 miles and maintained by the Wenonah Environmental Commission.

Quick trail notes
Total system: just under 6 miles (multiple short loops + connectors)
My loop: ~4 miles, a little over 2 hours (GPS stopped halfway)
Difficulty: easy, with a few hilly/tight spots
Conditions: can be muddy/swampy; planks/bridges in places
Start/parking: Wenonah Lake lot (kiosk map at the back of the lot)
Highlights: Wenonah Lake, Comey’s Lake, Dilk’s Pond, Monongahela Brook, Mantua Creek, Tea House
Food stop recommendation
If you want something easy after the hike, Amigos (in Wenonah) is a popular local option for a casual bite.

Trails are fairly easy to travel on, but some get muddy or swampy (there are planks in most of these areas).

Along the trails you can see Wenonah Lake, Comey’s Lake, Dilk’s Pond, Monongahela Brook, Mantua Creek, and a Tea House.

There are small loops of 1 mile or less around certain areas such as the lakes and Monongahela Brook, but the longer trails (Break Back Run Trail, Mantua Creek Trail, and Glen Trail) are more straight-through. By combining a few trails (plus a little street walking), I made a loop that began and ended at the parking lot for Wenonah Lake.

Tillman Ravine Trail Hike

Tillman Ravine Trail Hike

Tillman Ravine Trail is a nice, fairly easy 1.8 mile, mainly out and back trail in the Tillman Ravine Natural Area within Stokes State forest in Walpack Township, NJ.

You'll be hiking through a ravine carved by Tillman Brook. Along the way you'll see some small waterfalls and cross some small bridges. The trail splits early on between an upper and lower route. I took the lower but I should have taken the upper on the way out and the lower on the way back.
