Norvin Green State Forest Access provides foot-only entry to over 5,000 acres with an extensive trail network of nearly 50 miles featuring elevations from 400-1,300 feet and scenic vistas including views of the New York skyline.

Boating and canoeing are permitted with electric motors only on designated areas like Lake Sonoma, with canoes and kayaks requiring portage into the forest.

Fishing is allowed in designated areas with a valid New Jersey fishing license, and multiple parking areas serve different trailheads throughout the forest.
