Near Brookdale Park? I recommend to go to Holstein's to get probably the best homemade ice cream. So many flavors and toppings to choose from; and who can forget their homemade chocolates and candies!

I go here to unplug when I'm in New Jersey!

A fantastic place to run - the outer loop is challenging. The track is in nice shape. Always lots of people to see and fresh air to take in. One of my favorite spaces in NJ.

Great locale for rollerblading, biking, running, walking, and just about anything else including baseball, soccer, frisbee, et al. I enjoy exercising here for the friendly crowd and pleasant scenery.

Beautiful, spacious park - perfect for bringing some blankets, chairs, and tables to set up for a picnic.

Great park but I’m always disappointed that they do not have enough park benches to just sit and enjoy the scenery.

Designed by the same team that created Central Park in New York City this suburban Essex gem is a great place to power walk, join a football (er, soccer) game, or make use of the excellent dog park.

Nice big loop around the perimeter of the park for runners and walkers.

Park road is horribly planned! You can't go all the way around the loop without leaving the park and u-turns aren't allowed. So dumb.

This Park used to be a full circle without the now shut off exits. It was actually a huge hangout where late teens and early twenty somethings
