Wyckoff

NJ · 41.0094, -74.1731

Palisades Scenic Byway, Western Highlands Scenic Byway and Bronx River Parkway are 3 of 4 signed byways within 30 miles of Wyckoff, New Jersey.

Though there is no solid historical evidence for any of the various theories, the most commonly given origin for the name Wyckoff, which was the origin accepted by the township committee when the municipality was established, is that the name is from the Lenape word wickoff, meaning "high ground", or that it is from wickok, meaning "water". However, similarly named Wyckoff Heights in New York City is named after the Wyckoff family, who settled in the New York/New Jersey area when both states were part of the Dutch colony of New Netherlands.
