Cooper River Park’s 345 acres, which the trail runs through, have long been considered the crown jewel of Camden County’s park system.
In the future, the trails along the Cooper River will be extended to link with the walkway over the Benjamin Franklin Bridge, giving access to downtown Camden and Philadelphia, and connecting two important pieces of the Circuit.
