Turn right at the Shark River Park entrance. The first Park System park, acquired in 1961, attracts people who like fishing, hiking, ice skating and cross country skiing and also those of you who like a friendly game of shuffle board or horseshoe pitching.
Moms can spread a picnic under the trees while the children play in the playground.
The shelter building is for groups to rent and for general public use. Enter this 586-acre park from Schoolhouse Road, south of Route 33 in Neptune Township.
