One of my favorite places to get away! Asbury Park is located southwest of the road to the Airport. It is located south of 38th street. You can find a couple places to park your car and I recommend parking at the park with the fields and pavilion. Across the street is an education center where you can learn more as well!
Asbury Park is a short little trail that leads you into the woods in Millcreek Township. You'll find a well groomed trail. It's great for trail runners or your casual walk. I know my dog Keegan loves this trail.
About a mile or so in, you will come to a creek and bridge. You can cross the bridge and head up towards Brown's Farm. You can make this trip up to 5 + miles depending on the different routes you take while you're there.
Asbury is pretty peaceful and can be great for a brief get away. Keegan spends a lot of summer days in the water chasing the stick we throw.... about 50 times!
It can be quite the romantic walk too. It's wear I accepted my husbands proposal!
Along the walk, you will come to an amazing tree. Maybe I should say trees. (pictured) It's one huge stump with large branches going in every direction. Very cool site to see.
So, need something to do on a weekend and want to get away, without getting away? Asbury is a great place to visit. This time of year will be beautiful with the leaves changing soon!
Enjoy!
