Confirmed from City of Delray Beach Orchard View Park's own listing, the park or land manager's website, and runner reviews. Blank cells mean we could not verify that fact — we would rather say "not reported" than invent one. There is no Easy / Moderate / Hard rating on this page on purpose: a one-word difficulty score tells you nothing about whether a trail suits your run. Surface, distance, shade and hours do.
Park with a playground, picnic tables, and trails, plus a walking path.
What runners say about City of Delray Beach Orchard View Park
“The park has walking paths, a nice playground for kids, picnic tables under shelters and a well maintained bathroom facility.”
“Cute little park with a playground, a walkway around it, fruit trees and other beautiful plants.”
“If you want a longer walk or run, leave the park and go along Germantown Road for another mile keeping in the shade most of the way.”
“It was calm and peaceful not much crowd, during covid so get to use less crowd.”
This is a small park that isn’t usually busy. The park has walking paths, a nice playground for kids, picnic tables under shelters and a well maintained bathroom facility. There seem to be people there most days to eat lunch at one of the covered picnic tables. The parking lot is large enough for this park.
Cute playground for kids. Great for toddlers too. Has a little path so they can also scout it enjoy a bike ride and has bathrooms across the parking lot. Both times we’ve gone we’ve seen some kids there but not too crowded.
Most beautiful walking pads with colorful flowering plants. Absolutely no refuse on the ground or near the cans. Picnic tables with gazebo available, and a rack to lock my bike. I visit in the morning when I need to hear birds and walk a nature trail. Clean bathrooms are there as well!
Nice hidden park off of Linton Blvd. Took my elderly father in a transport chair. Paved paths are very even and easy to go over. Provides a nice view of the park and surrounding nature. Having a bathroom on site was appreciated. The paths were just the right walking distance for pushing someone in a chair.
