We've got it good in South Jersey. In fact, our backyard is home to some of the most AH-MAY-ZING hiking trails Mother Nature has to offer. No disrespect to our neighbors to the north – but we proudly put the "garden" in Garden State.
With spring just around the corner, there's never been a better time to get outside and experience nature. Plus, hiking is a super healthy activity. It's been shown to improve your cardiovascular fitness, benefit your heart health, and naturally relieve stress.
Thanks to our friends at Visit South Jersey, here are our favorite hiking trails that are just a stone's throw away.
1. Black Run Preserve | Burlington County
With over 1300 acres of perfectly preserved land – this spot is perfect for hiking, running, cycling, birdwatching, fishing, walking your pups, and so much more.
2. Kresson Trails | Camden County
We love this place because it's perfect for all skill levels, features seven different paths to explore, and is downright delightful.
3. Ceres Park | Gloucester County
You can't go wrong with this 52-acre nature preserve. Extensive trails. Enchanting wildlife. Beautiful wetlands. Why are you still reading this? You should go visit this place, it's the best.
Happy hiking, friends!
