Columbia Trailhead Parking

Highlight • Bridge

The Columbia Trail is a gorgeous Greenway along the South Branch Raritan River from this trail head to High Bridge, almost 15.5 miles to the south. Absolutely incredible views all the way through, autumn could be the best time to enjoy the trail.

This parking at the northern trailhead isn't very big, but a couple of cars can fit in it.

Califon Train Station

Highlight • Historical Site

The old train station was built in the late 1800s for the Central Railroad of New Jersey. Today, it serves as a hub for the Califon Historical Society and access point for the Columbia Rail Trail.

Supposedly, the name Califon comes from a shortening of "California", since the painter creating the station map didn't leave enough room for the original title.
