20s/30s: Hike at Cooper River Park — a scenic urban oasis!

If you are in your 20s/30s, this hike is designed for you. Connect with your peers while exploring the Cooper River Trail and South Park Drive Path - a scenic greenway that winds along the water through one of South Jersey’s most popular parks. The trail features river views, wooded stretches, and plenty of open space to enjoy fall colors right in the heart of Camden County.

Our walk will be a relaxed-paced loop of about 4 miles, with minimal elevation gain. The route follows the paved path around Cooper River Lake, offering great views of the Philadelphia skyline in the distance and frequent sightings of rowers, ducks, and geese. Along the way, we’ll pass through park landmarks such as the Cooper House area, the boathouse, and the sculpture garden near the eastern edge of the lake.
