The trails and parking areas in the Hilltop and Eagle Rock reservations are closed today, Tuesday, February 16 and they will be closed again on Thursday, February 18, for Essex County’s planned hunt to cull the reservation’s deer population. There will be marksmen in both parks from 5:30 a.m. until 8 p.m. The Highlawn Pavilion restaurant in Eagle Rock will be open, as will Prospect Avenue on the West Orange side of the park. But because the Hilltop Reservation spans both the east and west sides of Fairview Avenue, Fairview will be closed from Durrell Street in Verona to Myrtle Avenue in Cedar Grove from 5 to 10 a.m. and 2 to 6 p.m. For more information, call (973) 621-4400.
