White Trail is a 0.62-mile hike in Delaware and Raritan Canal State Park in New Jersey, managed by the State Department of Natural Resources. It is a short, moderate outing with a total elevation gain of 53 feet and a total loss of 96 feet, so it works well as a quick addition to a longer walk on the park's trail network. The trail is a point-to-point route, and the steepest stretch comes at about 0.42 miles in, where the grade reaches 12%. The start sits at 201 feet, and the high point is 299 feet. Horses are allowed, so the trail works for riders as well as hikers. For comfortable weather, aim for late spring or early fall. Typical averages from a nearby weather station in Bucksville, Pennsylvania, show May highs around 72°F and September highs around 76°F, with July the warmest month at about 85°F. The Yellow Trail lies just 0.1 mile away, and the Field Edge Trail and Orange Trail are each about 0.3 mile off. Climbers can find the r.
