Know before you go
State Line Lookout uses year-round metered parking; Alpine Picnic Area has seasonal parking fees. Confirm current rates and payment rules.
Rockfall, storm damage and seasonal conditions can close trails or roads. Check Palisades advisories before arrival.
There is no NJ TRANSIT rail station in Alpine, and riverfront park areas are not served by regular public transportation. Driving or arranged transportation is the practical choice.
