The coordinates are for the parking lot. There are lots of places to walk and sit. There are really nice benches, with dedication plaques, every tenth of a mile or so. Across the road is Maria Barnaby Greenwald Memorial Park. Hopkins Lane, which this park is situated against, is the demarcation line between this town, Haddonfield and neighboring Cherry Hill.

This park is nature oriented with similar interpretive signs to the Greenwald Memorial Park. These signs focus on indigenous tree life compared to the other ones which take a more holistic approach to the immediate area and its culture.

I found this on the web:
