Evergreen Trail is a short, easy hike in Tourne County Park in New Jersey, on county land. The route is 0.35 miles long, with a total elevation gain of 112 feet, and it is rated easy. The trail is a point-to-point route that starts at about 679 feet and climbs to a high point of 699 feet before finishing with a small drop to about 569 feet. The steepest part comes at about 0.26 miles, with a grade of 13 percent. For comfortable weather, aim for late spring or early fall. Typical averages from a nearby weather station at Boonton show September highs around 77°F and May highs around 71°F. That station sits well below the trail, so temperatures on the higher ground run cooler. The Green trail starts just 0.1 mile away, and the Orange Trail and Red Trail are both within half a mile. Climbers can find Cedar Lake Boulders about 2 miles off.
