Confirmed from Park North Cameron Wildlife Sanctuary'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.
Scenic park featuring peaceful trails and ponds surrounded by nature.
What runners say about Park North Cameron Wildlife Sanctuary
“It is very clean and plenty of places to sit and enjoy nature!”
“This is a beautiful little park with a center lake, plenty of trails, benches and even a rest room, lots of wildlife as well and it's even pet friendly!”
“The paths are level and macadammed and benches and swings are spaced around the lake for sitting and enjoying the peace and quiet.”
Perfect park for being surrounded by nature. About 2/3 of the trails are smoothly paved, leading to a wooden bridge overlooking the main pond. There are also dirt trails through other areas. Some years, the park is a fantastic place to see mushrooms and other fungi.
Great spot to take the pup for a walk ! I often run through the park and it’s normally quiet and lightly trafficked. Highly recommend
A true gem. Very sweet little park. Some trails asphalt, some dirt. Gazebos, benches alongside lake. Truly lovely.
This secret park in cape may county has a small parking lot which you wont notice unless you are going slow past it but once you get it to the park you will find tons of trails and lakes hidden here. Theres made lakes with fish and birds everywhere. Paved and unpaved trails too. Theres restrooms as well! Neat park!
