DELAWARE RIVER Flowing Traditions & Rural Pursuits Here, Revolutionary War history, scenic byways and protected nature flow together in perfect harmony. Stroll quaint main streets and historic villages of days gone by to shop antiques and art, then venture to berry farms and bucolic vineyards—all in the same day. The namesake river itself invites both lazy tube floats and paddling workouts, in addition to serene boat rides and fishing. Within its extensive wetlands and oak-pine forests, spot diverse species of plants and animals of the Atlantic coastal Pine Barrens. The Delaware River Region both surprises and enchants visitors with its pastoral beauty, timeless traditions and storied past. 56 2025 New Jersey Travel Guide
