The Pine Barrens Experience
What sets Wharton State Forest apart is its location within the New Jersey Pinelands National Reserve, an extraordinary ecosystem found nowhere else in the world. The forest's sandy soils support a distinctive community of pitch pine and oak trees, creating an open, park-like canopy that allows dappled sunlight to filter through to the forest floor. This unique environment supports rare plants like wild orchids, carnivorous sundews, and the iconic Pine Barrens gentian.
