A Saturday morning hike from Highlands, NJ to the Twin Lights Historic Sites, overlooking both Sandy Hook state park and Manhattan, is a must for any weekend adventurer... and I can't believe it took me nearly three years to seek it out.
The trek up the paved drive from the main road (which must be murder for residents in the worst of weather) was far less daunting than I imagined and soon enough I had the best views of the Atlantic Ocean (at least this far North).
Being the highest point of coastal elevation in NJ, this Vista, no matter the weather, is sure to please - as are the many historic exhibitions and the lighthouse towers themselves.
Complete with a charming gift shop and outdoor picnic areas, Two Lights Historic Sites park is perfect for a day adventure, a family outing, or romantic rendezvous.
Afterwards, stop for a fresh cupa at Water Witch coffee shop or Off the hook for a sandwich or pint.
