But there’s plenty to keep you occupied in and around North Bergen. The 167-acre James J. Braddock Park is the locals’ favorite oasis. It includes eight miles of walking paths, the magnificent 16-acre Woodcliff Lake, numerous sports fields (football, volleyball, handball, baseball, tennis, and more), and playgrounds. During the summer, residents of all ages cool off at the North Bergen pool, then head over to the city’s weekly free outdoor movie offerings.
