Camp Nekon

Located in Kingston, Camp Nekon is a 240 acre property featuring scenic pond views. The 2 mile trail accommodates hiking, biking, and kayaking. It offers direct access into the adjoining Kingston State Forest, forming part of a long-distance loop trail (with a wildlife tunnel under Route 44) that links Camp Nekon to the Muddy Pond Wilderness Preserve. Decades of illegal off-road vehicle use damaged the trails and the delicate pine barrens ecology here, but the Conservation Commission has been actively working on rehabilitation.
