Best Trails in Hartshorne Woods County Park

Really super nice trail. Maybe a little ambitious for a newbie like me, but well worth the effort. Someone mentioned a lot of sun. That was not my experience. There were small pockets, but even without sunscreen totally manageable. Really lovely views of the water from the trail.

Quick easy hike to do after spending the day at Sandy Hook, with some history involved which is always appreciated. River is nice and there is swimming beach by the boardwalk which looked clean but there were a few roudy party boats close to the boardwalk when I hiked it on a Saturday so might not always be secluded

So amazing!

Easy walk in the woods. Not much in terms of views. Big trees were nice though.

Nice easy walk thru the woods. Be sure to pick up a trail map at the trailhead to make navigation easier.

Nice wide trail, some big trees, decently well-marked. Not much in views, but it's nice

Easy pleasant trail with some views of the river. Trail is wide enough to avoid brushing up against poison ivy or tick-covered plants.

Nice easy trail. Weather was cool when I went which made it much more pleasant. Some partial views of the river and some explanatory panels about the bunkers. Saw a couple deer. Rocky Point trail was wide enough that I didn't need to brush up against vegetation much at all, which helps avoid ticks and poison ivy.

good hike!

Gorgeous views of the ocean! Make sure to wear sunscreen if you do this hike though; a lot of it isn’t covered by shade

trail with a view.

Dries really fast! Great, never crowded, and trails are easily marked.

A Go-to on nice days.

Nice place to MTB

Good quick hike

love it

One of the most nicest park for MTB - friendly trails - well mark - I always want to come back - Dries fast

Really nice hike! We saw a red headed woodpecker and a downy woodpecker. Lots of places to rest and eat snacks. There was even a bathroom about halfway through. We really enjoyed the little beach and dock.

I used to trail run here daily, these trails are so great for it!

Beautiful

I would have given it 5 stars --- but there were a lot of cycling on the same trail. Very dangerous. It is not a cycling trail only - therefore it cycling is allow they should be more careful

A nice little hike with history of the NJ gun battery pacements... then enjoy one of the many local restaurants.

This is a very good spot to hike. If your looking for a short and simple yet soothing and rewarding then you have found the spot. This is my 4th hike I have ever done so im an amateur but i highly recommend checking this spot out, the ending is gorgeous.

This is a wonderful trail full of twists and turns. The flora fauna are spectacular. Be on alert, as this trail is commonly used by cyclists! The only reason I did not give it five stars, is because it lacked a water source, which I strongly desire on a hike.
Dogs are always welcome on this trail. Have fun and happy hiking.

Beautiful trail! Took us a little over an hour to hike the trail did a little running also. Hardly anyone on trail. We did the black diamond trail and it was very easy to navigate. After a great hike we went to lunch at the inlet cafe. It was a perfect day date :). Enjoy. You will love!

Small beach is quite nice after some trailing.

Beautiful
