West Essex Trail
The West Essex Trail is an Essex County park, situated on the former right-of-way of the Caldwell Branch of the old Erie-Lackawanna Railroad, in Verona, New Jersey, and Cedar Grove, New Jersey. Distinguishing features of this rail trail include a trestle bridge 20 feet (6m) above the Peckman River, and the abandoned Essex County Hospital Center. Public debate delayed the County acquisition long enough for the railroad company to sell off some intervening parcels, effectively preventing the county from extending the trail as far as Grover Cleveland Park in Caldwell, as originally planned.
