Love the trails, Some are very challenging while others make for a great ride. Every time I go it seems like I find something new like different trails or just things along the way. Lots of history in that area Restrooms: Porta Johns in some areas while bathrooms at different places where you park Dog-friendliness: Definitely dog friendly Picnic area: Picnic tables in some areas and place to stop and sit in other areas
We came 16-00 Saturday and it was only 2 cars there in parking lot : I love this park you can go inside of the woods or stay in the loop near the water !!
Beautiful, scenic spot overlooking the Jersey shore. It is worth climbing a small hill near the entrance to get a glimpse of lush green field, trees and a patch of water.
Did laurel ridge trail in it from buttermilk valley entrance. Would call it low level moderate trail. We did it with 7 and 4 year olds. No restrooms Was covered with trees all through the trail.
This is a nice park with some good little trails! The trails could be more clearly marked at points, but it’s easy enough to figure out where you are with a map. Nice views of the water. The Rocky Point Trail, as the map legend indicates, is more challenging terrain gnarled branches/roots sticking out of the dirt and has some slightly steep points. But it’s nice and shady, which is welcome when the sun is strong. Other loops seem to be mostly paved. Overall, a nice place to come walk for a few hours!
Quiet and some shade on bike paths. The 16 inch gun is huge!
Hartshorne Woods Park is a beautiful hilly wooded 794 acre site overlooking the Navesink River. This park is one of the highest elevations along the Atlantic Coast and was a coastal defense site for the NY harbor because of this. I was able to climb to the top of the Lewis Overlook and enjoy the scenic views. It’s a great place to run, ride your bike and walk your dog. The trees provide a lot of shade. You can stay on the wide paved paths or venture in the woods. Fun Fact: Hartshorne Woods Park has the most extensive and challenging trails in the Monmouth County Park System; over 15 miles.
My happy place. The views, the peace, the mt bike trails, the hiking trails are all amazing
Nice place for a hike with a couple of different trails. Beautiful view of the coast and some pretty cool war cannons. Parking and restrooms are modern and well kept
Literally one of the best parks on the east coast. History, scenery, fishing, hiking, great mountain biking... The list goes on. I now live in Maryland, but I always come back to visit this place! Now with upgraded bathrooms and guided bunker tours!
