Huber Woods has 8.5 miles of trails through dense woods, open meadows, and hilly sections above the Navesink River. The terrain varies throughout the park, from wider, gentler paths to narrower wooded trails with roots and steeper grades. The former Huber estate is also home to an Environmental Center, Reptile House, and gardens, although dogs need to stay outside those areas
