NJ1K peak map Take Route 15 south to Sparta. Head north and east on Main St and then turn right onto Glen Road. As the road starts up a hill watch for Sparta Glen Park on the left. Park at the second parking area which will be on the right. Walk across the road to the well groomed trail. A short walk will get you to a T. Turn right and follow the trail as it winds around the high point. At about .3 miles a path turns almost 90 degrees to the left. Follow this prominent path to a rocky outcrop that acts as a nice viewpoint. The high point is a little further on down the trail on an almost flat summit. Reverse your route to get back to the car.

(The map at the right shows the parking area and the hiking route in a clockwise direction.)
