"Let’s just say I had a GOOD TIME! The SCENEry was so INVIGORATING! The other park goers were VERY FRIENDLY! I even made a very handsome friend… I will be going back for sure!"
"Pretty nice walk, mainly used for hunting so the real time I would want to hike here you aren't able to. There were 8-10 little ticks found off of me and my father each when we got out. Thankfully my high, tight socks prevented them from going anywhere on my legs. I would spray a lot of bug spray just to be sure."
"I run the trails here. Hilly and fun. Red is 4 mile loop and red to white to yellow to red is roughly 6/6.2. Great route."
"I recently went to the pine barrens with my boyfriend, his sister and our dog. We were excited to hike the trails for a few hours but about thirty minutes in we noticed hundreds, if not thousands, of tick larvae climbing all over us. They completely consumed our clothes, open skin areas, dogs fur, etc. (see picture below) None of us have ever experienced something like this, with such a mass amount of ticks, so we called the emergency line. The woman who answered noted that we should have worn tick spray and had no further advice or words of wisdom. We spent hours researching the best ways to rid ourselves of these parasites, showering, bug bombing, and cleaning. Needless to say, I do not recommend."
"It's the pine barrens and gets a little monotonous scenery wise. Many sections are too thick with brush to head off trail. Ticks are rampant. Lots of wintergreen and blueberry bushes. Some very pretty areas scattered about amidst the pines. Lots of shed antlers. But if anything you plan on doing involves going off the trail, expect to be covered ticks. The nymphs (baby ticks) are almost microscopic and yes they still can carry lyme disease at such a young age."
