Campgaw Mountain, Mountain summit in Bergen County, United States.
Campgaw Mountain rises 752 feet above sea level as the northernmost ridge of the Watchung Mountains, featuring distinct flora and geological formations.
The mountain area was home to the Munsee Lenape people before European colonization, with evidence of a village near the Ramapo River.
The name originates from Lenape Chief Kum-Kow, reflecting the indigenous heritage and historical connection to the native inhabitants.
