Long Branch Nature Center & Park

We took our babies here for the first time on 47/21. I would probably give it 5 stars but to be fair we did not see a lot of the park and the nature center itself was closed. It was also very crowded with people. To be expected based on where the park is located. The main trails here are paved so it's stroller friendly. Most of the trails are very close to the river that runs through the area. This was a great place to walk and there is an awesome playground with a big sand pit that our kids loved. We will surely go back and visit and try to get inside the nature center.

perfect to walk/run after work.. perfect for patties/gatherings.. recommend ud83dudc4dud83cudffb

Such a wonderful, well maintained place providing a lot of enrichment programs for young and young at heart.

Nice outdoor trail in the surrounding area. Enjoyed the with my kids here.

I was tempted to lower this rating so this would stay a hidden gem, but that's selfish. This place is an oasis of calmness and nature in a sprawling metropolitan area.
