This Is New Jersey's Most Breath Taking View

One of the best-kept secrets about the Garden State is that it really lives up to its nickname; our state is beautiful.

When most people think of Jersey, they imagine that stretch of 95 near Newark International that's nothing but oil refineries and highways.

I'll admit, before I became a full-time resident here 4 years ago, that's usually what my mind went to as well.

But it couldn't be further from the truth; Jersesy is one of the most beautiful states in the country, and the fewer people that believe that the better; it means more for us locals to enjoy!

And if you're an avid hiker then you know that Jersey has some pretty amazing views to enjoy.

For example, there's High Point New Jersey which is the highest elevated part of the state, and when you hike to the top of the trails the views could bring a tear to your eye.

They are truly breathtaking.

Even taking some time to climb to the top of the Barnegat Lighthouse can fill you with awe as those views are spectacular as well.

But what spot would you say has the best views in the entire state?

It may be hard to think of at first; would it be a beach view, a nature view, or a view of New York City from the beaches of Jersey? That's a cool view too.

According to Love Exploring, the views of the Deleware Water Gap are the best views you can hike to in the entire state.

People say that Mount Tammany may offer the best views of the Deleware Water Gap; you can see for miles, and you'll feel truly inspired by what you see.
