As you wander through our web pages, come and journey with us through the Borough of Netcong. Nestled in the mountains of Morris County, the Borough of Netcong is small in size but lacks for nothing. Still maintaining our small town appearance, we have a bustling Main Street enhanced by Lake Musconetcong on its perimeter. With The Growing Stage Theater, Netcong is in the forefront of children's theater. Our education system contains both parochial and public schools. Our 10 student per teacher ratio allows the children better access to their teachers, emphasing the learning process.
High School students attend Lenape Valley Regional High School, which is shared by Netcong, Stanhope and Byram residents. Lenape Valley also has its own Planetarium for the students which is opened from time to time for the general public and is well worth a visit.
Our down town area offers a variety of eating establishments ranging from Tex Mex to Italian. Our yearly Feasts are exciting and end with an amazing firework display. Netcong Day which we hold in September, attracts vendors and visitors from far and wide and is a wonderful day for strolling through our town.
Netcong is the hub of up-to-date transportation. New Jersey Transit provides train service to many other towns and links to NYC Path Trains. Access from Route 80 and Rt. 46 brings many diverse travelers to our Borough. NJ Transit NEW Customer number is: 973-275-5555.
