It's easily one of the most beautiful waterfalls in the country.
These sharp vertical cliffs are certainly eye-catching. Plus, the view from the top is unrivaled, with a beautiful river and glimpses of the New York City skyline.
High Point is exactly what it sounds like — the highest point in New Jersey. Go hike up here and marvel at one of the most jaw-dropping views you can find in the state.
Paterson's Great Falls are absolutely astounding. Move over, Niagara Falls!
We're not really sure how this massive boulder is supported in the air by these two little rocks — hike over to this natural oddity and consider it for yourself.
The Pinelands are THE spot to go to New Jersey to experience nature: The combination of oak forests and swamplands makes it so beautiful and peaceful here. We recommend kayaking and hiking through!
No need to travel to the Bahamas to see intensely blue water — there is a series of "blue holes" in New Jersey that have the bluest water around. Just don't go swimming in them — the holes, which are abandoned mines and get their color from sulfur, are quite dangerous.
