Hurley's Pond

The neighborhood of Hurley's Pond shares it name with one of the prettiest parks in Wall Township; Hurley's Pond Park. This 25 acre expanse of lush greenery is centered around its large pond, and although there are no marked trails within the park, there are still a few dirt tracks that you and Fido can follow that will take you to the pond. There is a tail-wagging array of different plant species here, from black cherry and willow trees to Japanese honeysuckle and partridgeberry, all of which will provide a feast for Fido's nose. Dogs are welcome to use this park, but do need to be kept on a lead.

North Wall

Campbell/ Baileys Corner

Campbell/ Baileys Corner is quite a large neighborhood, and is home to a couple of green areas that are pawfect for a walk with Fido. The largest is known as the Open Space Acq Wall, and this is a passive park, ideal for dogs who enjoy sniffing around in nature. There are a couple of areas of woodland here too, giving Fido plenty of variety. There is another recreation area in the neighborhood just off Baileys Corner Road. There are eight sports fields in total here, including a couple that are multi-use, as well as a nature area with shady trees and a winding walking path.

11th-14th

The neighborhood of 11^th-14^th in Belmar is right next to Wall Township, and is where you will find one of the most scenic parks in the area. This would be Ferruggiaro Park, a park famous for its large lake, complete with sandy stretches of shoreline. These mini beaches make for a picturesque walk, and you will likely meet quite a few other dogs here. Also in this neighborhood is Three Acre Park, with its playground and picnic benches, as well as a paved path that circles its way around the park. Dogs are welcome in both parks, but do need to be kept on a lead. 

Corlies Ave

Corlies Avenue in Neptune is next to Wall Township, and thanks to all of the pawtastic walks to be found here, will no doubt get Fido's tail wagging. The highlight of this neighborhood is that it provides access to Shark River Park, which extends out for 988 acres on both sides of Shark River. There are quite a few facilities here, from a playground and sports courts to pond fishing and ice skating, with different activities available each season. You will also find seven hiking trails here, ranging from the half mile Bridge Loop, which is a picturesque and relatively easy walk, to the two mile forested Hidden Creek Trail.
