A hike to several of the overlooks at the Goat Hill Overlook (no cocktus) which is technically part of the Washington Crossing State Park, even if a separate area. It was bought relatively recently to preserve it and keep the historic scenic views open to the public. These scenic views were used in the old war by both Americans and British to observe troop movements, and probably sunsets, too.
