Saddle River County Park

Great place to walk around, even when it's full of people there is plenty of room here. Grass space, ample road space. Great for biking, walking, kids, dogs. Relaxing, clean, and spacious. One of my favorite parks.

Happy New Year! Every year on January 1st, regardless of weather, I walk the entire path, which is a distance of a little over 12 miles. It's good to push yourself and it gives you a feeling of accomplishment to start the new year.
On other bike paths or rail trails, there are posted signs with bike path rules of etiquette. I wish Bergen County would also post them. I'm sure these rules can be googled.
Etiquette goes beyond politeness and consideration. The main purpose is to protect everyone from injury. We are both avid bikers and walkers. You really need to be mindful when groups of walkers encounter groups of cyclists, because you are not alone and everyone has a right to be there.

I use this “road” for my commute to work each day via Electric Scooter. It’s a beautiful park. The path is beautiful. More cities NEED to do this. It’s a low stress way for me to get to work so that I don’t have to intermingle so much with cars on my usual commute on the roads. This pathway is a gleaming example of park building and it’s so long that it ACTUALLY connects 2 points.

I recently visited this park and was pleasantly surprised by the variety of activities available. The trail for walking and running was well-maintained and provided a beautiful view of the surrounding area. The park for kids was also a great feature, with plenty of equipment to keep them entertained. Overall, I found this park to be a decent option for families looking to enjoy some outdoor time together. I would definitely recommend it to others looking for a fun and active day out.

One of my favorite places to walk and just get away and be in nature. There's all types of friendly people. you have people walking, jogging, great picnic areas, tennis, basketball courts, baseball fields, running, fishing, bicycling, roller skating, a beautiful pond with a water fountain, Parents walking with their babies in strollers. A playground area for rhe orderchildren. it's just a beautiful place to be and watch the sunset

A beautiful place to go for a nice 20 minutes thru 2 hour stroll.

Has Porta potties along the way and bathrooms during season.

Quiet, Serine, less bikers than other parks,

Very well maintained and great place to walk with a group of friends; human or furry! Long trails to walk in and everyone is very friendly. Can't wait to take my pooch back here for a walk and explore a new area of the park!

The park is so big and beautiful! I love going there for a power walk. I have never walked the entire distance of the park but I look forward to one day doing so!

Lovely park.

Has a duck pond, various kids' play area throughout the stretch of the park, biking and hiking path, quite a few benches, a football field, spots to fish, and ample parking.

Lots of geese meant a lot of poop to manoeuver around; only in certain spots. You might also get to see deers on the hiking trail.

Lovely park to bring family, and kids of all ages.

My husband and I love to take walks there with the dogs and see the kids playing. It's a good place to do exercise and do speed. Walking can walk around the a greatry you might enjoy it.

Love this park. We go for a walk with our dog, and there are so many different routes that we never get bored. The grounds are clean and well cared for, there is a nice big parking lot and lots of benches to sit and relax on along all of the routes.

Love to go to this park for cycling/biking. There are some places for children and dogs and lots of ducks. The basic route for biking is 6 miles for one way.

Great park with plenty of space and tons to do. We enjoy riding bikes on the paved path and then letting our lil one take a break at the playgrounds. Conveniently located to the highways with parking entry points. Will definitely be enjoying this park plenty this summer!

Gorgeous, as always. Met and pet the sweetest dog today!!! Peaceful! ❤🥰

I go there every weekend in the Sundays. Very nice park, it is good for walking or biking.
What thing I do knot like it in this park some people do not clean after there dog, also at the weekend the restrooms dirty but overall, it is good park in this area.

First time visiting this park, beautiful views, long pathways along the lake, play area for the kids, baseball and basketball areas. Plenty of shaded areas for a hot summer day.
Also a hot spot for PokémonGO if you are into that.

I love this it is a 596-acre (2.41 km2) county park in Bergen County, New Jersey, United States, stretching from Ridgewood to Rochelle Park, and extends out to Glen Rock. The park is located along the Saddle River and consists of five sections, all of which are connected by a paved path that is open to both pedestrians and bicyclists.

Walkers should be keenly aware of cyclists, too often I’ve witnessed bikers wizzing by at inappropriate speeds. For those whom like to meander it can be dangerous. Otherwise it’s a great place to walk for fitness or leisure. Nice picnic area’s and playgrounds at several of the sections.

Lovely stretch of parkway with wide, smooth paths, lots of shade between park areas, and lots of parking areas to jump on from. The park is equally good for biking or walking/running, or finding a spot by the river to relax for a while.
