For almost its entire 34 miles, the Lenape Trail is marked by yellow blazes painted on trees and telephone poles. (The section east of Branch Brook Park in Newark is the only section that currently remains unmarked.) Even without a map, just by following the yellow blazes you can walk all the way from Newark to Roseland. What's a yellow blaze? It's just a little square of paint, a couple inches in size, usually located shoulder-high. You've probably seen them many times while walking through Essex County, without ever noticing them. Here's our map of the entire trail. Or check out our NEW INTERACTIVE ONLINE MAP, which allows you to zoom in and see exact streets. The online map includes the whole Liberty Trail, of which the Lenape Trail is just one small part. Enjoy!!! |
