Central NJ is a tough one thing to define. But we consider most of Mercer, Southern Middlesex, most of Monmouth, and a smidge of Ocean to be Central NJ. And within this northmagical realm, you will find historical places (like Washington Crossing SP), great fishing (in Assunpink WMA), and the future Capital To Coast trail! Come explore... you will love everything you find :)
