Confirmed from Long Branch Park's own listing, the park or land manager's website, and runner reviews. Blank cells mean we could not verify that fact — we would rather say "not reported" than invent one. There is no Easy / Moderate / Hard rating on this page on purpose: a one-word difficulty score tells you nothing about whether a trail suits your run. Surface, distance, shade and hours do.
Green space offering sheltered areas, walking trails, a ball field, 100-ft. sledding hill & events.
What runners say about Long Branch Park
“There was a lot of shade to break up the hot day, and the bathrooms were pretty clean.”
“I love bring my longboard to Longbranch and going for a cruise especially on a beautiful day!”
“A quiet place for a walk and a picnic here as well with their pavilions and fireplaces.”
This sledding hill is basically a free winter amusement park run entirely by gravity and poor decisions. Kids screaming. Adults pretending they’re “just supervising” while absolutely sending it down the hill. I saw at least three wipeouts, one sled achieve flight, and a grown man question his spine choices.
Nice quiet park on the water. There is plenty of Parking and 3 sheltered picnic areas as well as BBQ grills available. There is also a play structure for kids. Park is always clean and well kept. A few different trails. Water access, small playground, bathrooms, and rangers always on site while park is open.
Reviewed 5 stars so as not to mess with rating. We parked for Scottish fest and it's 15$ an adult 8$ a kid without seeing what you're paying for. We left, 50 for a family to get in then probably 50 in food? I'm not dropping a bill on bagpipes and walking sorry
Great place to hold the Street Scene 8 event! I hope they have it at Long Branch Park again next year. There was a lot of shade to break up the hot day, and the bathrooms were pretty clean. The park is spread out very well and could handle hundreds of cars.
