The Brendan T. Byrne State Forest (formerly the Lebanon State Forest) is a 34,725 acre (139 km²) state forest in the New Jersey Pine Barrens. Its protected acreage is split between Burlington and Ocean Counties.
==Description==
The Brendan T. Byrne State Forest is the state's second largest state forest (after Wharton State Forest). There are of hiking trails and a camping area. The park is operated and maintained by the New Jersey Division of Parks and Forestry. Originally named for the Lebanon Glassworks, which operated in the 1850s and 1860s, it was renamed for Brendan Byrne in 2004. Byrne served as governor of New Jersey from 1974 to 1982. He championed and signed the Pinelands Protection Act in February 1979 which preserved thousand of acres in southern New Jersey. The park was renamed for him during the 25th anniversary of the Pinelands legislation by then Governor James McGreevey.
The forest lies within the Atlantic coastal pine barrens ecoregion. It includes the Cedar Swamp Natural Area: with upland pine-oak forest, oak-pine forest, pitch pine lowland forest, and Atlantic white cedar swamp forest plant communities. The Natural Area protects habitat of the threatened Swamp pink and other endangered plant species.
