Nature Reserves In and Around Hunterdon County

September 22, 2011

• Since the early 1960’s, the citizens of Hunterdon County have expressed their concerns about preserving the rural and agricultural character of the County. This desire has developed, over the past four decades, into a land preservation movement throughout the County. In recent years, partnerships have formed with private, municipal, County, State, and non-profit organizations, to preserve open space by various means throughout Hunterdon County. These continued partnerships will result in providing areas for future generations, in which to view nature, and enjoy quiet moments along a stream or river. It will provide places where residents and visitors can fish, hunt, play golf, participate in team and individual sports, and enjoy other recreational pursuits. The diverse natural features of our Hunterdon County parklands include rocky cliffs, fields, forests, streams, rivers, marshes, and ponds. Come and visit our beautiful County and enjoy some of nature’s best offerings in the State of New Jersey.
