Trail Overview

Glassworks Trail is part of a trail network in the Brendan T. Byrne State Forest. This trail connects you from Egg Harbor Road Trail to Route 70. The diversity of this trail ranges from hard-packed sand and small washout water crossings to mud holes. It spans about 4.5 miles and takes about 30 minutes to navigate. Along the way, you can access many other trails that branch off of this one.

Status Reports

Easy groomed wide trail. A couple of soft sandy spots. Most all trails today were done in 2wd.

Drought season, stock 2wd RAV4, piece of cake. Just gravel, dirt, a little bumpy. 2wd sedan could handle it roughly.

Easy ride next to "Devil's Haircut" as labeled on Google maps. Nice scenic lake with cool tress in the background. Once there was a difficult water crossing. But a bridge was constructed over it and gravel poured in another section. There is a spill way right before the bridge, but only a couple inches deep after a couple days of rain. Currently any RWD, AWD, or 4x4 can pass through.

Decently muddy after recent rainfall through the week, few shallow crossings. Mid trail there is a large pile of gravel in the middle of an intersection, shortly after us a washed out narrow section right after a bridge. Advise caution when crossing.
