Apple Pie Hill is a hill in Tabernacle Township, Burlington County, New Jersey. It is 205feet tall, making it one of the highest points of the New Jersey Pine Barrens.[2] A 60feet fire tower stands atop the summit, offering views of the surrounding Pine Barrens.[3] The skylines of Atlantic City and Philadelphia are visible from the top of the tower. It lies along the Batona Trail in Wharton State Forest, making it a popular hiking destination.
On September 10, 2016, due to vandalism, the Department of Environmental Protection closed Apple Pie Hill to public access by erecting a fence around the tower.[4] However, the tower is open to visitors when staff members are present and by appointment.[5]
Soils are sandy almost everywhere, with profiles that resemble classic podzol development; Atsion, Lakehurst, Lakewood, and Woodmansie are common soil series.[6]
