Terrific trail! I've been going to my YMCA for a number of years, and I've seen this trail attached…read moreto the parking lot but have never actually taken the time to explore it. Today, when I pulled up, I saw way more people than usual on the trail. I thought to myself, "I'm here early. I got time. Let's check it out." Glad I did! It was about 1.25 miles down to West Chester Pike, so roughly a 2.5 mile loop from the YMCA. Great little paved path to get a warm-up walk/jog in. It is flat and paved the whole way, so it is handicapped accessible. Lots of doggo walking and bike riding. I recommend it!

Darby Creek Trail is what it says it is. It's a trail that runs alongside Darby Creek. And given…read moreits proximity to the creek, that means many critters hangout around here. And THAT means if you are walking a doggo, as I am wont to do, then your doggo will have ample smells to snoof. It's made worse by having a beagle, as the beagle is notorious for smelling all the smells. Makes for a very slow walk! But the trail is well kept and paved. There are trash cans and recycling cans here and there. Dog poop bags at the beginning of the trail, so no excuse to not pick-up after your pupper. Trail is about 1 mile long. So down & back = 2 miles. There are markers every 1/4 mile if you don't want to go the whole way. Solid trail. Perfect for walking the puppers and letting them snoof. Siskel & Ebert give it 2 thumbs up.

One of the trails along the creek has a nice spot for kids to jump in and get a little wet.

There's actually a trail and other things like volleyball nets and I'm just in love with this spot. The wooden castle is adorable for the kids I haven't really seen something like that until here.

There are swingsets, baseball fields, soccer practice area, marble playing area, tennis courts and trails. The grass is cut so the park is kept up. I'll definitely be back but bring bug spray. We came right after it rained and the bugs were chomping on us.

Within a few minutes you are surrounded by trees and walking along Naylors Run stream. Similar to the trails in Fairmount Park in all but size, this trail is great for a short (apx a mile) head clearing walk in the midst of Upper Darby. Don't miss the amazing tutor house on the right as you walk in, the house and natural landscaping are worthy of a look!

There is also a little free library on site as well as 2 basketball courts, pavilion with a charcoal grilling setup, picnic tables, and 2 baseball fields. There is a paved path that leads from Hathaway lane down to the park, onto the man bridge that crosses the creek. Often ducks can be spotted hanging out there which is another fun bonus. There is plenty to do here and everyone we've met here has been super friendly and accommodating. When the nice weather months are happening, there are two bathrooms with running water, a significant improvement over most parks with only port-a-potties.

This park is a lawsuit waiting to happen. It is a joke. Whoever designed it is a f*cking idiot and…read morewhoever approved it is a f*cking a**hole. The Zipline has no safety precautions whatsoever and nobody works at this park so the thing is mobbed by sh*tty teenagers f*cking around. There are no barriers, no nets. Eventually a toddler is going run in the way of a teen and get obliterated. Then there's the giant pendulums. Two of them. Like 10 feet high in the air, these horrible things that kids can climb on and rock across a big gap. No safety precautions again. No nets, no barriers, and no attendants. What happens when a kid sticks a finger in the hinge at the bottom? What happens when a kid falls off, 10 feet up, onto another? Bottom line is this park is made of high quality material, looks new, smells new, yeah, very new and shiney. But everyone involved in designing and approving this park should be fired. It's filled with deathtraps and should be torn down.

I went to Linwood Park yesterday for the "LOVE Rally" in response to the horrible events in…read moreCharlottesville. I arrived at the park a few minutes before the event started and was able to experience it's beauty. First, there is no playground or basketball courts, but it is rather more of a community park where people can get together. For example, they had a Little Free Library, benches where people were taking and a large open area where you can have catch! Many kids were having a catch or climbing their large trees. Around the entire park is a long, well-maintained cement trail! It is great to just walk on it and see the beautiful park, which has tons of flowers and statues! You can even use the trail at night as it has lights in it! One statue showed a boy and girl sitting on a bench together. That pretty much represents what the park is! There is also a reflexology walk. Though, you have to take your shoes off to properly use it. The rally itself was very nice and showed hope for America. U.S. Congressman Dwight Evans as well as State Representatives Daylin Leach and Mary Jo Daley spoke! This park is also run by a group called Friend's of Linwood Park who keeps it clean and up to date. They also host tons of events including Movie Nights and a day where exotic animals came! Altogether, this is an amazing park to have fun at!
