We counted 49 deer after a 50-minute trail. This is a hidden gem; I hope not too many people discover it so I can keep it for myself. It’s also a great place to fish.

Great place for an afternoon walk!
No dogs allowed due to the wildlife.

We easily walked 5 miles. Unfortunately some of the boardwalk trail is in disrepair and closed. Other than that a great place to hike!

There is quite a bit of trash that gets washed up on the shore, we often bring grabbers and trash bags to clean up the shoreline. Great family project!

Attended a hike hosted by Rancocas Nature Center. Absolutely gorgeous park to visit! Great wildlife, birding to observe, teeming with a variety of plants. A joy to absorb yourself in nature. Will definitely be returning

In my opinion this is one of the best parks in South Jersey. It is rather large, and there's plenty of variety to see rather than just wooded trails. There is a skinny land bridge that runs along the Delaware River and eventually leads to a wooden bridge that connects you to the rest of the southwestern portion of the park. It ends up being a pretty long walk, but totally worth the time. It is also a bird watcher's paradise. Two types of birds in particular that we saw where the scarlet tanager and an oriole.

One thing it you should note, it's not particularly stroller friendly. The Cove Trail is tightly packed stones, but there is no pavement. Also no pets or biking allowed. Also I would recommend visiting during low tide. If you do, you can walk along the Delaware River, and you can see more of the cove at the southwestern end.

Great place to get lost. I recently got back into photography and the amount of wildlife here is very satisfying. My first time here I captured photos of deer, woodpeckers, foxes, an owl, eagles, hawks, and so much more. I spent over 3 hours walking the trails and thoroughly enjoyed myself. I will be going back soon!
