Egg Harbor Township Nature Reserve

      Saturday, September 18, 2021: On the way back from Somers Point, New Jersey, we stopped at the Egg Harbor Township Nature Preserve (EHTNP), 317 Zion Road, Egg Harbor Township (Atlantic County) NJ (609-625-1897). Here on a 220-acre nature sanctuary, this wooded area contained three sections: a learning center (that was closed when I was there due to covid-19), a wooded forest, and a lake area. Unlike other park areas, the EHTNP had no plans to add sports areas and playgrounds. Instead, they planned to keep this park as a nature preserve only! Nevertheless, they provided opportunities to observe the local flora & fauna, fish at the lake, and walk the different trails, as well as go biking, canoeing or kayaking on the lake, and picnicing. Overall, I found this place relaxing as I picnicked by the lake.
