The New Weis Center is a community-based nonprofit in Ringwood that offers a welcoming space for all ages to connect with nature. Set within a scenic landscape of forest and stream, the center features private hiking trails where visitors can explore seasonal changes, observe wildlife, and discover wonders of the NJ Highlands up close.
A wide range of nature-based programs are available, from guided hikes and exploration along Blue Mine Brook to seasonal offerings like maple sugaring, all-day retreats, forest bathing, and popular open mic nights.
For those looking to extend their stay, NWC also offers camping options, including tent and platform sites, fire circles, and simple cabins.
Whether you’re visiting for a program, an overnight stay, or a simply a quiet walk in the woods, NWC invites you to slow down, learn something new, and reconnect with the natural world in the NJ Highlands.
