Barn-B-Q Trail Festival

The Barn-B-Q Trail Festival, held in Berkeley Heights, New Jersey, is a unique outdoor event combining trail running or hiking with a lively barn party. Set in the historic Deserted Village of Feltville within Watchung Reservation, participants can enjoy self-guided trail tours ranging from 2 to 6 miles, with maps provided. The festival features a 5-hour all-inclusive party at the beautifully restored Masker's Barn, offering BBQ, beer, wine, seltzers, games, music, and social activities called "Barn-tivities." The event celebrates nature, fitness, and community in a scenic urban oasis, encouraging trail etiquette and environmental respect.

It’s a fun, family-friendly way to bid summer farewell. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
