Historic mid-19th Century African-American burial ground with markers and plaques that tell the history. Call ahead to arrange for the cemetery to be open and an historian to meet you there (201-336-7267). Lunch at Palermo's Cafe & Bakery immediately after your history lesson. There's a coffee/pit stop in West Englewood at mile 11, but the town closes down on Saturdays and Jewish holidays. In that case, detour down to Palisade Ave. and stop at the Field House in Milton Votee Park. Then you can stay on Palisade all the way to the right turn onto E. Main St.
