About

The Highlands shoreline offers a quiet escape from the usual pace. Gateway National Recreation Area preserves open space and trails in this coastal stretch of Monmouth County.

It sits at 26 Hudson Rd, Highlands, NJ 07732, a base for hiking, kid-friendly paths, and easy picnics. Dogs are allowed, and a playground keeps younger visitors occupied.

Directions are a tap away on the map. A good spot to stretch your legs by the water.
