Egg Harbor Township Nature Reserve — Attraction in Egg Harbor Township

Beautiful, expansive area. Trails are well planned, the variety of trees & nature selections are impressive. Cornucopia of trees, grasses, shrubs, water, textures. With hills and valleys all through the park, land height variation allows for scenic overlooks, changing points of view.

A multifaceted park with evolving scenery throughout. Usable lake with grassy beach, small ponds scattered through inner fields. Ample paths allow for bikes, walkers, groups, dogs to share the paths easily.

Smooth walking surfaces are easy for people of all ages and abilities to navigate. For those who welcome challenges, there are steep cut-throughs to join other paths, and places to climb elevations that require some spirit, if you'd like.

Features a circular park design with trails on the outer ring of the central water feature. Open areas are interspersed with trails that have many connecting paths adjoining the central park. Not another monotonous wooded trail with a narrow view of trees that isn't connected and accessible when you must decide on a singular path.

Treasures along the paths, too--hand-painted stones with beautiful messages and colors. Artifacts scattered throughout. A treasure in Atlantic County.

Now, it is all not bad, the water is clear, unlike 99% of all freshwater in Southern NJ, the birds and many, and there is a lot to see and enjoy here. There is also ample paved parking, porta-a-potties, and a small rest area to compliment all the benches around the upper path. If you love nature and want a little more exercise than a quick jaunt around the block, I recommend the...

This is one of them off the wall nature reserves that is chock full of amazing things if you spend the time here. There are one or two pretty rare plants that are in huge abundance here and it's a very open old sand mine looking place. Large expanses of freshwater many dragonfly and damselfly species. A smattering of mud poking shorebirds osprey and other interesting birds. Just walk around the main pond area and take your time and you'll see in here. Lots of neat things and not many people to be honest. The trail system down by the water is the best in my opinion, there's also a trail system through the woods which I tend not to see as many things when...
