An 8.6-mile out-and-back along the pink-blazed Batona Trail from the Carranza Memorial to a 60-foot fire tower atop the Pine Barrens’ highest point at 209 feet. On clear days, the tower provides views of both the Atlantic City and Philadelphia skylines. Wild blueberry bushes line the sandy trail in late summer.
