October 2024: Fall Day Trips

There's nothing like a beautiful, crisp fall day spent outside in the Garden State. That’s why our October issue is dedicated to fall day trips throughout New Jersey. Right now is the perfect time to set out in your car to explore a part of New Jersey that is simply wonderful during this time of year.

We highlight several day-trip ideas that span the state, from Fort Lee Historic Park and Museum in Bergen County all the way to Beach Plum Farm in West Cape May.

Have you ever spent a day at Grounds for Sculpture exploring the beautiful grounds and the larger-than-life art? Perhaps. But have you ever gone on one of the park’s eye-opening behind-the-scenes tours? Find out all about how the sculptures at this wonderland are created, and book your own tour now. If you love to bike, head to Delaware and Raritan Canal State Park, a 70-mile-long linear park that crosses five counties (Middlesex, Mercer, Burlington, Somerset and Hunterdon) and 32 towns and is a bona fide biker’s paradise. There are plenty of great places to stop along the way as well.
