Osio Rock is one of many outstanding overlooks in Norvin Green State Forest. Buck Mtn, Carris Hill, Wyanokie Hight Point, Long Hill, Manticut Point, Torne Mtn and Assiniwikam Mtn all offer extraordinary views of the surrounding area.

Norvin Green is a relatively unknown gem in northern NJ. You will encounter few other hikers while out on the trails.

The terrain in Norvin Green is somewhat rocky and rugged, so hiking boots are recommended.

Parking for this overlook is located on Glenwild Ave near the border of West Milford and Bloomingdale. Trailhead is across the street from parking.
