Looking for a hike that is steep/challenging, but with dense canopy

[Bonnie]

Hello, I'm looking for a mountain hike in the downstate NY/NJ area that is steep and challenging, but doesn't have a lot of climbing along exposed granite.  Views or waterfalls would be plusses, but not necessary.  Thank you for any leads!

Perhaps either of those might be worth a look?
