2000 – Spring Lake, Hamilton/Trenton Marsh

Abbott Marshlands

The Marshlands include over 3000 acres of open space in central New Jersey adjacent to the Delaware River between Trenton and Bordentown. Their diverse habitats – freshwater tidal and non-tidal marshes and swamps, ponds, and woodlands – are home to many kinds of plants and animals.

The Abbott Marshlands provide many opportunities for nature study, recreation, and quiet reflection.  There are trails for hiking, some for biking, and there are picnic tables in several locations.

Come visit:

  • Paddle the meandering tidal freshwater channels
  • Walk the trails along bluffs that overlook marshes and swamps
  • Watch for Bald Eagles and Osprey
  • Listen to the song of the Carolina Wren
  • Smell the fragrance of the Swamp Rose
  • Discover the Tulpehaking Nature Center
  • Linger to learn about those who walked, lived, and worked here
