Things to Do Around Montclair

For a relatively small community, Montclair has a great deal to offer in terms of recreation and an enormous amount of enrichment and cultural offerings for both children and adults.

Montclair has more trees than people and over 175 acres of parks including Edgemont Memorial Park, Eagle Rock Reservation, Brookdale Park, Presby Memorial Iris Gardens, and Mills Reservation.

Montclair area parks offer everything from flower gardens, hiking, bird watching, playgrounds, dog runs and 18 public tennis courts, 3 public swimming pools (Mountainside pool, Nishuane pool and Essex pool), 4 skating rinks (two of which are indoor), and many soccer and baseball fields.
