Confirmed from Tubman Garrett Riverfront 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.
Riverfront green space with regular festivals featuring music and food vendors.

“Beautiful little Park with a great view of the river nice place to walk the dog or sit and have lunch”
“Great place to think nice and quiet this picture was taking in the middle of summer”
Cute waterfront park right next to the train station with a lot of space to walk along the river. There's a statue and some information boards talking about the history of the area and commemorating Harriett Tubman which were cool to read.

This is the Delaware River front park. Connected with Jack A Markell Trail from Delaware River front , DuPont environmental education center and to New castle batter park.
Nice little Riverfront park. Good place to spend an evening or a morning walk. There are river cruises too that are great in the evening.
