Putting in at the Playhouse Lane Boat Landing in Whiting, we’ll paddle through the winding marshes and wetlands along the Orange River (approx. 2 miles) to the Estey Mountain Trailhead. Then we’ll hike to the mountaintop’s vista overlooking the entire Orange River Conservation Area, before paddling back the river to the landing. It’s a one-two punch of outdoor adventure!

You will need to bring your own canoe or kayak, paddles, and PFD. Dress for the weather and don’t forget the sun and bug protection as well as water and a snack.

Directions: From US Route 1 in Whiting turn right onto Playhouse Lane. Go 0.1 mile and turn right onto Landing Road. Take Landing Road past the house (where it becomes dirt) to the end where there is a small 2-car parking lot. Please park without blocking access by other vehicles. Overflow vehicles can park on Playhouse Lane.
