Allaire State Park North of the Manasquan River Details

Allaire State Park North charges a seasonal fee to park in the main lot.  There is no fee to park in the large multi-use lot along Route 524 (Atlantic Avenue).  You can bring your bicycle along if you would like to combine your hike with a bike ride to Manasquan on the 5.6-mile paved Edgar Felix Bikeway that skirts this lot....

Allaire State Park North of Manasquan
Hiked Allaire this week and enjoyed touring the historical buildings during their 200-year anniversary. There were plenty of areas to enjoy a long hike, however, the trails in the North section were in need of blazing, particularly the orange trail. We had difficultly locating parts of the orange and yellow trails and once on the trail the blazes were very tiny and so limited that we kept losing the trail. We had hiked here before and each time found this confusing. Its a nice park but needs attention!
