Laurel Run Park

This park opened within the past week on what used to be a large field of grain (which it looks like the park dept. is trying to reestablish as a meadow habitat). The stalks have been mowed over and harvested, and a large rectangular sand path has been placed around the perimeter of the park, which is between the Rancocas Creek and Creek Road in Delran. There was also a BBQ grill, a pavilion (with picnic tables) and a few additional picnic tables around the park. The trail is fairly long, and it took me and my dogs 40 minutes to walk around once (though there were many stops for sniffs). The sand on the paths is not packed (though it’s possible that this is because the park is so new). The loose dirt made it was a bit hard to walk (picture a beach), and my smaller dog had a few issues with dirt being kicked in his face. This seems like a really nice place to walk and talk to a friend, or maybe to bike around, but I personally prefer parks with numerous trail choices and habitats (and there are 3 that I know of within 3 miles of this one).
