52 Hikes
My first hike was in Ceres Park.
Hike 1/52 – Ceres Park
As you know, I’m still recovering from my back injury so for now, my hikes need to be easy or moderate in nature.

The trail is fairly easy with some climbing if you wish to explore off trail areas.
I downloaded the All trails App as one of my new tools to explore more hiking.

Ceres Park is an easy trail in South Jersey, trails lead to a 3 mile total hike, but we walked 1.4 mile. You can check out the trail map here:

The trail through the woods leads you to the Emerald lake .

Some areas were flooded after a few days of rain, so boots are recommended if it’s rained recently.

Some areas involve a short, but easy climb.
