Hiking In Fall Is A Treat In New Jersey

Hiking is fantastic during Fall here in the Garden State

So we've had a fantastic stretch of weather this week....a perfect time to hike! Hiking, to me, is a great way to get exercise without risk of injury running too hard. Plus you get to take in the great visuals "Fall" brings here to our area.

We have great Parks for Hiking throughout Ocean County, Monmouth County and Burlington County! By the way you must check out "Smithville" Park in Burlington County, a fantastic hike and very scenic.

One thing I did notice was that you still see the lasting effects of Hurricane Sandy. Even though it's almost a year later you still see all the downed trees as you make your way through the forest. I give props to the Parks Department for cutting and clearing the paths for us to make our way through Freedom Fields County Park .
