NJAS Closes Weis Ecology Center - But the Highlands Pool Remains Open! (More Info). The hidden gem of the Wyanokie Highlands, this Olympic-sized, stream-fed freshwater pool is located adjacent to Norvin Green State Forest. The grounds include a picnic and barbecue area. There is direct access to a recreation field (including a softball backstop), volleyball court, ping-pong tables, and over 21 miles of hiking trails. In 1935, the swimming pool was carved out of the hillside. Today the Highlands Natural Pool is a 501(c)3 non-profit community-owned and operated facility. No chemicals are used in the Pool. Visitors are welcome! For a modest day-fee, you can become a Provisional Member and try us out! See our visitor information page for hours of operation, ground rules for the picnic grove, frequently asked questions, etc. Important Note: if you are planning to visit as a group of 20 or more people, you need to read this first before coming! Register now for swimming lessons, lifeguard training and deep water aerobics classes! ONLINE REVIEWS OF THE POOL June 2010 review in the FuhgedouttaBrooklyn blog.
