Hedden County Park

Hedden County Park is a general purpose public park, located in Morris County, New Jersey, near the town of Dover. It has a total area of 389.42 acres (1.5759 km2) which includes six-acre Hedden Pond and a 2.8-acre easement along Jackson Brook. The park was dedicated on October 4, 1970, and is named after the Hedden family of Dover, who donated the original 40 acres (160,000 m2) section in 1963.[1]

The park features two ball fields, and other multiple-purpose fields, and a children play area. There are picnic areas, including a 140-person sheltered area with facilities. The pond offers a fishing deck. Most of the park area is accessible from several hiking trails through woods and along streams and waterfalls.
