Enjoy A Long Walk At This Underrated State Preserve In New Jersey
Hiking through the Garden State is always great, but many of our top parks are usually pretty crowded. Is there anywhere to go for a long walk in New Jersey where you can truly clear your head, take in the beauty of nature, and maybe not encounter anyone for miles around? It’s possible, especially in winter, at Maurice River Bluffs Preserve. This natural area is a haven for fishing, birding, and hiking, and it’s located near the unique arts-driven town of Millville.
