Photography Scavenger Hunt:
Essex County
Get Your Camera Ready for Our New Jersey Scavenger Hunt!
Want a little adventure? We’ve created a scavenger hunt for every county in New Jersey. You can see them all here.
So grab your camera, download the map below, and head our to get some new photos and explore some new places!
We realize that your favorite photo spot might not be on the list, and that’s ok! These maps and lists are designed to get you to some new spots you might not have explored in the Garden State.
Once you’ve crossed all the spots off the list, let us know and we’ll send you a sticker!
Eagle Rock Reservation
Believe it or not, Eagle Rock is one of the best places to see New York City! Bring a picnic or take a hike here too.
Branch Brook Park
Head to this park in the spring to see the most amazing cherry blossoms.
Hemlock Falls
These falls in South Mountain Reservation are a must-see! Explore the rest of the park, too (there are miles and miles of hiking and mountain biking trails).

Cathedral Basilica of the Sacred Heart
