    I really liked the Glen Rock area of Saddle River County Park. On the day we went, we encountered a…read moregiant turtle, a family of deer, and various water fowl. This was the most luck we've had seeing animals up close at SRCP. Plus, I enjoyed walking the paths there and walking around the pond at this part of the park.

    There's plenty of free parking, benches and picnic tables. There's "duck pond", public bathrooms, a…read moreplayground and a dog park. I came to the park for the trail and got a great workout! The trail is paved and next to the stream, parallel with Paramus Ave. It goes through Glen Rock, Paramus, Fair Lawn and Rochelle Park. It splits in a few areas and there's a few different entry points and parks along the way. The path could be busy. I think most the walkers are annoyed at the bike riders for passing them by quickly, but the riders are annoyed at the walkers for taking up space and not staying to the right. In the map, you can see where the trails splits and can take the alternate path. It was great for a bike ride, except I walked it in a few areas and hopefully I don't get poison ivy. There were baseball fields, basketball courts, pavilions and an abandoned tennis court. There was a waterfall, a lookout tower and a building from the 1800's. The underpasses/bridges were nicely boarded and the trail is very clean. This park is very basic. There was nothing extraordinary about it. I think if your in the area and it's convenient to walk or ride through, it's nice, but it's not worth going out of your way.

    My dad took me fishing here as a kid for sunnies, and 30 years later I brought my own kids here…read more Some traditions are worth passing on. If you have young children, this is a great pond to introduce them to fishing. A simple worm on a hook is almost guaranteed to catch sunnies. If you're a little more skilled (or lucky), there are bass here too. One thing I appreciate is that there aren't nuisance snapping turtles like you'll find at some other local ponds. Pack some sandwiches, bring the family dog, and spend a few hours here. It's a peaceful park that's rarely crowded. Park in the main lot off Grotke Road. The main pond is just a short walk down the path, where you'll see a fountain spraying from the middle. There's also a small office building by the parking lot with restrooms. Beyond the pond, the park has a ball field, courts, a practice wall, hiking trails, a playground, and a large open field. A stream winds along much of the outer edge of the park and makes for a peaceful walk. Just keep an eye out for poison ivy... it's everywhere. And one last piece of advice...take lots of pictures of your little ones. One day, they might be the ones bringing their own kids back here.

    I've covered all the grounds, and it's an absolutely lovely park. Starting with a bridge, it opens…read moreup to a nice size lake. For the kids, 2 full slide and monkey bars. But, in addition, there is basketball courts, 4 tennis courts, 4 handball courts, a a baseball field, and a soccer field...and a few trails...each is surrounding by the most lovely tall and skinny trees. Parking is limited on Pascack Road (~3 cars, the main road), so enter on Grotke for a larger parking lot. Word.

    It gives me great pleasure to add "the rec" and be the first to review. I have lived in town all my…read morelife and practically grew up at this park. The only thing that would make the rec. better is if it still had the basketball court. North Haledon is a baseball town and it shows. The park has 5 basketball fields. #1 is major league size located by the Brookside entrance. You will also find the kids jungle gym, or kids American Ninja Warrior training facility as well as the entrance to High Mountain School. There is also a trail accessible from Dawn Ave. for the locals. Field #5 is a great field for a homer in derby. It is located by the overlook entrance by then police department and Library. There is a beautiful stream that goes along the border of the park. You may find children in the water, but I wouldn't recommend it. There is a bike trail that goes behind #1 and also a garden. They have batting cages, but are only accessible by the ref commission or coaches. There's a refreshment stand and pavilion area. There are plenty of soccer fields and tennis courts as well. The tennis court is locked, the code is 421, the police assured me that anybody can play. They also have a wall for "pickle ball." I'm not sure what that is, but when I was a kid we used to play "butt's up" outside the gym by the middle school. I suspect they didn't want kids playing there, created a wall and renamed this game. (You if you dropped the ball after it was bounced against the wall, you had to run and touch the wall before someone would throw it against the wall, if the ball got there first, you would have to allow the thrower to throw the tennis ball at your butt).
