Parking at 519 just north of High Point shelter?
I see conflicting info on the parking situation on rt 519, just north of High point shelter in NJ. Is there parking here or close by?
There are so many miles and so many mountains between here and there that it is hardly worth thinking about
If I wanted to hike on the AT in or near High Point, NJ I would use the nice and decently large AT hiker parking lot off of Rt23 just south of the High Point State Park HQ. I believe they prefer you to check in with them at the HQ if you are leaving your vehicle at that parking lot overnight.
As for where the AT crosses 519, if there is parking there, I believe it's just a small dirt pull out off the road. I assume you are familiar already with the Rohland AT parking website. I use that website and google maps street view when checking out possible parking.
Sorry I couldn't be more helpful and definitive about the 519 parking situation but hopefully this reply is still helpful.

Trying not to re-hike from high point. Doing a fill in section hike. I guess I will just have to just go and see. Thanks for the reply.Originally Posted by somers515
