I'll go out on a limb and guess that there aren't any "hiking trails", if you mean something that is specifically designated as such. I could be wrong however. My 2020 topo includes all of the NJDEP trails and it doesn't show any there. Do any of the Wildlife Management Areas have "hiking trails"?

But my map shows the roads and other features:

If you're not already familiar with it, check out the "sync" function that lets you view two maps at the same time. Access it by clicking this button

You can also share/save links directly in the sync app. Each map has its own menu, so you can compare features on a topo with an aerial, for example.

Hi Clamdigger, seconding Boyd's map here, and just wanted to share that this summer I took a ride through there to check it out and learn the place a little better. I'd advise planning a drive through there to get the lay of the land (if you're not too familiar with it already), and stopping at different lakes and wetland spots and exploring around on foot. Note that there are some old abandoned cranberry bogs in the back that may be attractive to check out if you see them on the map, but access is tough (between it being overgrown and also some private property signs back there). Also note that there is some iffy sand in some spots, not quite sugar sand but I definitely started sweating a bit, even with AWD. Keep us posted! It's a great place that I haven't explored nearly enough, which is a shame because my father used to take me there fishing when I was about 5 (which was 45 years ago!). Good luck.
