I highly recommend you purchase the New York - New Jersey Trail Conference map here. There are a lot of trails in Harriman State Park and not only will this map not get you lost, you can also change my route and add/remove trails.

Jun 21, 2016 — This nice loop in Norvin Green State Forest starts at Otter Hole via the Hewitt-Butler Trail, heads up to Carris Hill and then over to Wyanokie High Point. To form a loop, the route I took then heads west on the Wyanokie Circular Trail, then south for a short time on the Norvin Green Highlands Trail before taking the Wyanokie Crest Trail back to the Highlands Trail. You can easily alter this loop in many ways with the large trail system in the area. The route I took just seemed like it would cover the most ground and see a bunch of highlights and views.
