It’s that time of year again… The season where leaves change from a gorgeous green into vibrant shades of yellow, orange and red. New Jersey is one of the best states for fall foliage and one of the most enjoyable ways to experience it is while dining. What’s better than good food and unforgettable views? Tucked away in the Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area, the Walpack Inn has both.
The drive to the Walpack Inn is sure to be scenic, as you’ll be surrounded by trees on all sides.

Though it’s the interior that’s a real treat. Dine in the greenhouse for floor to ceiling windows.

This restaurant has been a local favorite for decades and you don’t want to miss it in the fall. You’ll find the Walpack Inn at 7 National Park Service Road 615, Layton. While it’s probably one of our most secluded eateries to enjoy the foliage from, we’ve got other restaurants that let you see the leaves change while you dine. Just check out this eatery atop the Watchung Mountains.
