    During a recent 4-day stay in Dayton, RiverScape Park became a favorite spot to relax and unwind each afternoon. This beautifully-maintained urban park is located downtown, along the Great Miami River. On our first evening, we were pleased to find that the park was kicking off their summer festival season with food trucks, a live Celtic band in the pavilion, and more. Paved paths wind around flower beds, sculptures, shaded benches and more. Steps lead down to the lower level which consists of a paved path that follows the river. This area is complete with benches, gliding chairs, and an unusual-shaped awning for picnicking right on the river's edge. There is a low area in the river with a small waterfall that was a favorite for those wih kayaks and canoes. There was something so relaxing about sitting on a glider and watching the river flow by. Walking the path at sundown was very romantic. I know that if I lived here I would be a frequent visitor. I understand that there are events throughout the year, with a Celtic fest in July, ice skating in the winter, and more. Dogs are welcome but must be leashed. Street parking is free on weekends and after 6 PM on weekdays.

    For downtown, is a nice scenic place to sit and relax. Rent a bike if you like and go on the trails. Little Fountains to run in during summer for the kids. Ice skating in the winter. Snack shop available. The fountains on the river are very beautiful downside: only a little amount of green space, but what is here has flowers and bushes.

    The park is beautiful and well maintained, over the past few years they have really done a lot to make the park gorgeous amd it is working. From ice skating in winter to pokemon playing all year long, for a walk or a bike ride or even to see some entertainment in the pavillion, you are never at a loss for something to do here. Last weekend we took the bike path starting here, through Island Park and on to Wegerzyn Gardens and it was lovely. The path was well maintained the whole way.

    I adore riverscape metropark! It's such a wonderful addition to downtown. In the winter they have ice skating in the summer there's a bike path,paddle boats and sprinklers for kids to play in. They also cell snacks and ice cream there. It's a great place to have a picnic,take a walk or take advantage of the boot camp classes that are held there!

    Beautiful grounds. Parking difficult when there are other events nearby, like a game down the street. This is partly due to the viaduct.
