The Battery Park Playground has swings, spinners, a spider web and a zip line! Great place to stop and let the kids play on a drive from DC to NY.

We ❤️ BATTERY PARK ❤️. We love just sitting on the bench and listening to the water crashing. We also like the trails. This is the best park in Delaware.

This is a very nice waterfront park and pier to visit when you are in the historic part of New Castle, Delaware. There are a few nice benches spread out on the grass. My friend and I enjoyed eating ice cream cones at the park. There was a nice breeze from the river.

This is a beautiful walk close to New Castle's historic district. Stopped in New Castle for a leg rest mid-way through a drive not knowing quite what I'd find besides the history of the first state. This is a perfect walk, nicely paved and maintained, just on the water. You can smell the salty air or walk a little further and find shade tree-lined clearings. Even though it is fairly busy, there are moments where you can be all to yourself and it is simply peaceful. Walked for about an hour, then headed to see the rest of the town.

It's a clean area for a fun picnic and just enjoy the scenery. On a hot day the breeze here feels good.
