Lochiel Creek County Park Barnegat New Jersey

Hooray! It’s national play outside day!
We are definitely going to be going on an adventure to one of our favorite local hikes today. It’s a beautiful fall sunny day.

We started doing this trail over the summer. There’s a map right before you start and it shows the different trails and how long each of them are. We usually do the main loop but we have definitely taken the side trails as well. It is off a main road but once you get inside it is all beautiful woods.

The kids like to do this trail after school. It is a mostly easy trail. And for us, it’s perfect. It’s not too long. We usually do the trail that is just under 2 miles. After a long day at school/work, it’s nice to enjoy nature and get some energy out. Now that it’s getting darker earlier. Don’t want to get caught in the dark in the woods!

My daughter likes to search for mushrooms along the trail. So that she can throw them at the trees like target practice lol. And my son is very happy to be pushed along and enjoy the scenery.

Barefoot of course. As long as we can.



Enjoy playing outside today!
Happy Fall Y’all. Beautiful Season.
