Lincoln Park

Lincoln Park in Jersey City is one of the most beautiful and underrated photo locations in North Jersey. The willow trees, open walking paths, and reflective water create a peaceful and romantic atmosphere — especially at sunset.

It’s the perfect spot for wedding portraits, engagements, or even quiet moments in between the ceremony and reception at The View. The park has a timeless charm that feels calm and natural, yet it’s just minutes from the city.

Highly recommend this park for anyone looking for a serene, scenic backdrop — whether for photos, a walk, or just a breath of fresh air in the middle of Jersey City.

We passed by on a sunny day and found quite a few empty tennis/soccer courts. There is a decent walking trail around waterside that transitions into a golf course. Though it was a bit short and hard to get to. The view of the bridge was nice
There might be a group of foxes hiding nearby, but it was a bit far to confirm

Lincoln Park is a really nice place. It has big green spaces, tall trees, and fresh air. I liked walking around and sitting on the benches. Families come here to relax, and kids play in the open areas. It feels safe and clean. I enjoy my visits

It's huge and very peaceful with lots of parking....get your food and water.
There's portable public toilets
Pleasant place to spend time with family 😊

On of the bigger parks in this area of New Jersey. Jogging and biking paths are separate and the entire park is smoke free, at least by law.

There are tennis and basketball courts peppered around and there is even a park events center or building that one can book for parties and celebrations. Overall a good daytime park. I suggest not going alone into the middle of the park when it's dark but that's for almost any park anywhere.
