White Township rewards visitors who enjoy history, farm country, scenic drives and outdoor recreation more than conventional tourist districts. Highlights include the township museum, one of Warren County's oldest church sites, Beaver Brook Wildlife Management Area, orchards and farm markets, a working winery and classic Route 46 roadside culture.
These are the strongest visitor anchors currently supported within White Township itself.
Housed in an eighteenth-century home at the municipal complex, the museum features a restored general store, nineteenth-century artifacts, vintage photographs, railroad memorabilia and Native American material. Current township hours are Sundays, 1–3 p.m., May through October.
The first log church was built here in 1734. Warren County recognizes Hazen as its oldest church site still occupied by a church on the original location. The current brick church dates to 1856, with an exceptionally historic burial ground beside it.

White Township was incorporated in 1913, but its farms, churches and settlement sites reach much farther back into Warren County history.
The museum is the best first stop for understanding local farming, commerce, transportation and family history. It is also a participating site in the countywide Explore Warren History Trail.
The burial ground includes historically significant Warren County residents and Revolutionary-era figures. Visit respectfully and avoid disturbing markers or church activity.
Warren County honored Mackey's Orchard as its longest continually operated farm and business. William Mackey established the farm in 1846, continuing a family presence in the area that reaches into the early eighteenth century.

White Township's outdoor recreation is closely tied to state wildlife-management land and the Highlands landscape.
NJ Fish & Wildlife identifies nearly 1.9 miles of abandoned railroad bed plus field-edge and woodland walking opportunities. Trails are not blazed, so carry a map and be prepared for informal conditions.

Fields, forest, streams and edge habitat support birds and wildlife. Dawn and dusk can be rewarding, but visitors should remain aware of hunting activity and seasonal conditions.
The abandoned rail grade approaches the Manunka Chunk Tunnel area through Beaver Brook WMA. Follow public-land boundaries and do not enter closed, unsafe or restricted structures.

Guests must be of legal drinking age to consume alcohol. Use a designated driver or other safe transportation plan when alcohol is part of the visit.
Route 46 through White Township and Buttzville offers a classic western-New-Jersey road-trip feel.
The 1944 roadside hot-dog stand is one of Warren County's best-known Route 46 landmarks and a natural food stop during a White Township drive.
The Route 46 community provides restaurants, small businesses and a recognizable local identity between White Township's farm country and Interstate 80 connections.
Route 46 links White Township with Knowlton, the Delaware River corridor, Oxford and the Pequest Valley, making it useful for a broader Warren County day trip.
