Hartshorne Woods Park

Hartshorne Woods Park offers fishing access to the Navesink River from a pier at Black Fish Cove, featuring a steep 0. 7-mile walk from the Rocky Point parking lot where anglers can fish year-round.

The park provides over 16 miles of trails across three sections (Buttermilk Valley, Monmouth Hills, and Rocky Point) suitable for hiking and biking, with multiple entrance points and free admission daily from 7 a. m. to dusk.

Note that New Jersey anglers age 16 and up must register with the NJ Saltwater Angler Registry before fishing in marine and fresh tidal waters.
