Starting December 28, 2022

“Youth is when you’re allowed to stay up late on New Year’s Eve. Middle age is when you’re forced to.” - Bill Vaughan (1915-1977) American columnist and author

We jest! We’re not about forcing anyone to do anything here at Explore Warren County Tourism Partnership; we just want to spread the word about fun things to do in our beautiful county!

If you do decide to venture out to ring in the New Year, below are a few options. For those who want to kick off 2023 with an outdoorsy, healthy vibe, there are three different group hikes from which to choose. Looking ahead, there is a sneak peek at some January events to help beat the winter doldrums.

Happy New Year and Happy Wanderings!
