Open for passive recreation only. Park opens 7 a.m. and closes at: 5:30 p.m.; as of November 7, closing time is 5 p.m.

Wells Mills has the distinction of being the largest park in the Ocean County Park system with over 900 acres of pine and oak forest within southern New Jersey’s environmental marvel known as the Pine Barrens. Miles of hiking trails with varying degrees of difficulty can be found.

The three-story Nature Center offers a great display floor, a library, and the third floor “Elizabeth Meirs Morgan Observation Deck,” recently dedicated in honor of a very active naturalist and conservationist in Ocean County.

Environmental programs and classes are held regularly at Wells Mills, with experienced naturalists available to answer any questions you may have about the ecology of this area.

The Annual “Pine Barrens Jamboree” is held at Wells Mills each October. A day filled with music, piney vittles and hand-made crafts, it’s an event not to be missed!
