This is really nice park, contiguous with Jockey Hollow, lots of trails, lake, ball fields and dog park. Trails allow mountain biking which is great, but when hiking you got to stay on your toes.
Good place for a nice MTB ride and to practice for when you go hit those gnarlier trails. The trails have gotten pretty washed out over the summer but they are still a fun ride. Just be careful as there are some hikers.
Good trails. Some are long and some are short. Excellent place for family.
One of the nicer parks in north Jersey with walking trails for everyone. It also borders Jockey Hollow historic site. Features a swimming pond with paddle boats and wildlife is amazing.
Nice trails with lots of different loop options. Popular with off road biking. Lots of grills and picnic benches, some fields, etc.
Well maintained mtb trails but they can be a little boring and the drainage can leave something to be desired, especially in the switchbacks. The rest of the park is quite nice.
Best Morristown location for family fitness and fun. Has it all, hiking, biking and play areas.Get out & give it a try.
So beautiful to drive by and just enjoy the brilliant fall colors!
Great mountain bike trails near me.
Nice MTB trails though a bit rocky and quite a bit of climbing compared to the downhills.
BEARS! I grew up in the neighborhood and I have never seen bears on the trails until today. I saw two bears today while I was trail running. Harmless but still very frightening when you see them popped out on the trail. Besides that, trails are great, great for novice hikers and kids. Just talk very loud to scare the bears and stay on ONE path to avoid getting lost, the trails will connect you to the same spot you started (for first-timers).
Decent MTN bike trails, decent hiking, easy parking. lake to swim in, clean bathrooms, sites for grilling, pavilions in case it rains.
Nice double track ups with single track downs
Nice park that is out off the beaten path. Good place to go on a hot day. Lots of trees naturally reduce the temputure. Nice place for family.
Nice serene park with many hiking and bike trails, picnic tables and decent parking. It also has a little lake / pond stocked with fish, easily accesible by car . There are also baseball fields and other open areas. No food or drinks available so bring your own.
Great park, plenty of parking, short or long trails depending on your desired activity level. Most of them have some grades to them, a bit of uphill or downhill, but nothing too difficult. The trails are marked, but slightly more clearer marking would be great.Theres a small lake as well with a beach area that didnt seem too crowded during our visit, but the trails are what we focused on, and they were absolutely empty. Very peaceful.
Great hiking paths next door out of Sunset Lake.
Good climbs, not too technical.
One of the largest parks with most facilities anywhere around.
Doe Meadow was a nice picnic area.
I come for the mountain biking. Good network of trails that become more enjoyable as you learn how they connect around the park. Not super-challenging, but theres lots of climbing to be had, depending on which way you head, and there are spots that will be difficult for beginners. My biggest complaint is that there are a couple sections with gravel that are hard to avoid, even if youre trying to stick to the single-track... and I hate riding, especially climbing, on gravel.
Beautiful place to enjoy nature and detox from electronics
Good plat area walking trails.
Nice place, however lake not opened for swimming and bathrooms not opened; only have portable jons. Very disappointing on this hot humid day.
Great MTB spot.
Love running the trails here
This is an incredible park with lots to do. It has many walking paths that hookup to both Jockey Hollow (the National Park) and the countys Patriot Path trail system. There is a place to swim and to fish. My favorite are the trails. My dog could spend hours there.
I mountain bike a lot around New Jersey and it has some of the best trails to ride. It has a great mix of flowing and technical trails but it is all what you make it. Its a beautiful park as well with a lot of space and things to do.
One of my favorite local parks. Great mountain biking trails, picnic areas, and a beach at Sunrise Lake. The beach facilities will cost you if you choose that option. Easy access to Patriots Path. Plenty of wildlife to observe, so keep your eyes out for bears in the fall. A few years ago I had a close encounter with a mother bear and cubs.
I enjoy the mountain bike trails which are good for intermediate riders and is near Patriots Path which is good for beginners. It also has a lake which is open in the summer for swimming. Lots of woods and a creek, it is very peaceful.
Wonderful way to end summer
Beautifuly beautifully maintained. Quiet. Has full facilities. Picnic tables and grills. Enjoy relaxing there for Bible study & meditation after I get off work (if I havent gone to sleep yet). Make sure you bring bug spray.
Very well maintained park. Trails are rugged but not rocky. Marshy in many sections so wear boots. For 1 mile to 10 miles hiking so many options available in the park set in wild forest
Large, quiet. No ranger station for orientation or check in. No running water at camp sites but nice platforms. Easy to follow trails. Park police were very helpful.
Nice place for weekend hiking.
This was a very nice park. I drove up from south Jersey to go geocaching. I parked and walked across the road to get to the South side. Lots of trails to hike on. Some wide and some narrow. There is a elevation gain and loss though the park, to the trails are easy to moderate. Very peaceful and clean. Got to watch out for mountain bikes. There are lots of them and they go flying by. There are no outhouses at the parking, but found one by the camp ground. I did not look at the side on the other side of the lake, so there might be more facilities there. Great place to go to hike or bike.
We rented a shelter here for a party. The area was clean and quiet, overall I was very happy with location and the park is beautiful.A few suggestions though, finding the right shelter can be confusing as I only saw the identifing letter on a very small plaque nailed to a tree.Reserving the shelter was a challenge as it was not available to reserve online and no one answered the phone when I called several times. I ended up having to drive on my lunch to Morris County Parks office and reserve it in person. I would like to point out everyone was very nice at their office.
Wonderful park, full of fun nature things to do.Theres a small lake with a beach and picnic area, several geo-cache stashes, several brooks, a camp site, and plenty of trails. Everything is well maintained.If you like mountain biking and are looking for a good workout, this is a wonderful place to build up your stamina and skill. Theres a variety of technical difficulty (smooth fire roads, rooty climbs, and a few basic rock gardens). There are some fairly steep hills, but nothing crazy.If youre just starting out in mountain biking, you can either take it easy on the climbs (use that slow gear) or consider a park with milder climbs, such as Six Mile Run in Franklin Township.
We attended Park-a-Palooza here and had a great time! The park was well taken care of and beautiful. Its nice to find these green spaces in Jersey. Its a larger park than I expected.
Very peaceful, low stress lake. Well maintained with a number of water activities. Highly recommended.
Massive and beautiful park with something for everyone. Water sports, hiking, many picnic tables. The scenery is stupendous and very relaxing!
Comfortable and quiet
Great place to walk and ride...I do both.
Beautiful and very peaceful!
Good place to mountain bike
Tons of hiking trails. A good dog park. Lake for kids in the summer. Great place to spend some time.
Nice one with trails
There should be better map/directions on the camp ground.
A wonderful park with great trails from easy to challenging with hills and roots. I do find it disarming when the trails are changed, blocked access and rerouted. I also am concerned with the hunters who are lurking in the woods with weapons, even though they are supposed to stay away from the trails. They will be there 6 months.
Smooth (wheels will stay on the floor) undulating well maintained trails for mountain biking. Trails are plain to see, but colored blazes could be more prominent. Convenient parking if you can find it on the main road opposite sunrise lake.
Great trails with varied degrees of difficulty. Good for adults and kids alike.
Lots of beautiful land
We went for the swimming... While NOT a good choice for swimming AT ALL (biting horse flies on the beach and fish so not afraid of the people that they nibble on your legs!!).. Im sure this is a wonderful place for hiking and picnics (as long as the flies dont like what you packed to eat!)
Very cool place with sunrise lake for swimming and paddle boating, water slide fun and picnic area.
A marvelous place full of delight and peace. Beautiful people walk the woods.
Beautiful! On the other side of Morristown National Historic Park
Very clean, private and you can enjoy a nice bbq and walk or lay on the grass.
The place is tranquil, beautiful trails, lake with a whole lot of activities. If you want extra space for the kids to run around, this is the place.
Love Lewis morris for mt biking. Trails are maintained well
My go to for hiking. Watch out for bikers but as long as you know to share the trail, it is great and not too busy at all
Nice place to spend with family there
Mindful moments
Great biking trails. Nothing too technical bit there is a bit of climbing
Great place to mountain bike. Has a little bit of everything for everyone.
The most beautiful park I have seen. They had a surprise party for us there. Clean you feel so close to nature. Stunning clean park.
This is very nice park to spend your day. You can plan a barbecue. The place is very clean and well maintained. There is children play area as well as a playground for outdoor sports. There is a private lake as well which you can use by buying the entry passes.
Great trails!
Sunrise Lake in particular is a great place to take young children.
Nice place wished if the lake was open
Fantastic park for picnics, sports, and hiking. The ball fields are numerous and well maintained. There are plenty of gazebos too for events. The trails are well marked and numerous. There is entry of space for a quick hike or a longer one where you can really loose yourself in nature. Perfect for long hikes with dogs, trail running, or mountain biking.
Trails were great as always but be prepared to do a good amount of climbing. Also must of rained hard the night before trails were unusually wet.
Really stunning and fun! But disappointed that the playground was taken down.
Good place to walk the dog or go for a run
Great park to relax and take the kids. The playground is awesome!
Lots of parking so 5 star
Good place for company get togethers
Does it burn when you pedal or hike? If not, come here to get your swole on because you never let your friends skip leg day. Good mix of trails here to keep your legs from shriveling from sitting at your desk all day. Dont forget to do your laundry because youll be getting a good sweat. Then finish it all off with a little tanning by the lake.
Well groomed and maintained trails. Map could use a bit of updating, but for the most part is accurate. Great for hiking, mountain biking. Well maintained camp and picnic areas. A gem of Morris County Park system
Great place for family picnic for large groups with ample parking in the park in historic Morristown..
Loved the food truck festival they hosted here.
Great park for soft hiking, mountain biking and/or to have a birthday barbecue during summer
Nice Trails nice Lake good fishing
