Danville Mountain

Danville Mountain is a peak in Liberty Township that rises to about 1,122 feet (342 m) above sea level. Several trails crisscross the area, offering walkers different routes and views across the surrounding landscape.

The mountain formed millions of years ago as part of the Appalachian range stretching through the New York-New Jersey Highlands. Its geological origin connects it to one of North America's oldest mountain systems.

The mountain draws local hikers who regularly walk its trails as part of their connection to the outdoors in Warren County. This everyday use reflects how the landscape serves the community's recreation habits.

The main access is from Danville Mountain Road, where marked trails begin the routes up the mountain. Parking spots are available, though arriving early helps find space, especially on weekends.

The mountain sits apart from the main Highlands and has developed its own separate ecosystem because of this isolation. This separation has allowed wildlife to maintain natural behavior patterns with minimal outside disturbance.
