Henry Hudson Trail, Hartshorne Woods Park and Hominy Hill Golf Course
FREEHOLD, NJ – Three Monmouth County parks have been voted as the best in New Jersey by readers of New Jersey Monthly magazine.
The Henry Hudson Trail, stretching from Aberdeen to Atlantic Highlands, was voted the best biking trail. Hartshorne Woods Park was voted the best hiking trail. Hominy Hill Golf Course in Colts Neck, designed by Robert Trent Jones, was voted the best golf course.
“This vote confirms what we have always believed and what our own polling tells us – that Monmouth County parks are second to none,” Freeholder Lillian G. Burry said. “The Park System is always listed among the favorite things people love about Monmouth County. Now that the warmer weather is on its way, I would encourage people to venture outdoors and rediscover their parks.”

The Henry Hudson Trail is 24 miles long. It features a northern portion from Aberdeen to Atlantic Highlands, but also includes a southern portion from Freehold to Marlboro and Aberdeen. Walkers, runners, bicyclists and equestrians enjoy this former railroad right of way dawn to dusk.

LONG BRANCH, NJ — Help the Monmouth County Park System protect the nests of endangered birds at Seven Presidents Oceanfront Park, Long Branch! Volunteers (ages 18 and up) are needed to monitor known nesting sites of piping plovers and least terns on the beach. Those interested in volunteering should attend the Beach Nesting Bird Monitor Training Workshop on Sunday, April 17 at Seven Presidents Oceanfront Park, Ocean Avenue, Long Branch. Offered twice the same day, prospective volunteers can attend either the 12noon-2pm or the 2-4pm session. Indoor and outdoor activities are involved. Please dress for the weather. The workshop will be conducted by Todd Pover of NJ Fish & Wildlife.
Volunteers will monitor the nests April through August. During peak summer usage and special events such as the Fourth of July, volunteers will be asked to educate park visitors about these species and discourage actions which may negatively impact the birds and their chicks.
For more information or to register for either workshop, please contact Melissa Kelly at (732) 842-4000, ext. 4283, or email
