11 of the best places to take a nice walk in New Jersey

Next time someone tells you to "Take a walk" consider that they may be actually helping you relieve stress. A new study published in "Frontiers in Psychology" at the University of Michigan suggests that taking a 20 minute walk through nature or "nature pill" can reduce your stress hormone levels. With that in mind and knowing how much stress we deal with just living in New Jersey, I asked my social media followers the following question. Where are the best places to take a walk in New Jersey? I figure if someone is going to tell you to "take a walk" they should at least follow it up with a suggestion. Here's the suggestions they came up with:

John Kensil - "Berlin Flea Market"

Frank Ralston - "Wildwood pier"

Bob O'Brien - "Gunnison Beach"
