Beautiful park in downtown Wilmington. Perfect for family get togethers, sports, or just hanging out. Some trails are available as well.

If you have the energy....its amazing! The rocks are stunning, but provide a adult playground lol. Plenty of places to jump rocks over the river, which is my favorite part. Just an all around amazing place to go have fun and burn some calories !!!! Bring some water....and then some more water lol

Very nice park for dogs, walking, running, sports, kids, gatherings, and family photos!Very clean to.

I used to live at Rockford apartments years ago stopped at Rockford park love the improvements over the years.

Beautiful and well maintained park. Rockford tower is a historic site and also great for taking photo.

Very nice and clean. Nice place to go walking, and see the sights. The tower is closed, according to the sign, until next year. I would love go up to the top, and look around Wilmington.

Best place to take your dog to get all there energy out and alway walk around and explore

Located in an opulent area known as the Highlands. I grew up in this area. Its almost unchanged.Its good for personal use, small groups, pet owners, sport activities. Im there everyday.The tennis courts are always busy busy usually left with an open court.Most city intermural softball leagues use Rockfords upper diamond. No fence.The picnic areas are few but have places to barbeque. Each has separation for privacy.Marathons and other events will pop up near the water tower on weekends.Parking along the roads is fine. Be sure not to park your tires on the grass.Rockford is very popular with dog owners. Dogs can run free. Youll often see numerous owners and pets congregating located near the entrance. There are receptacles for picking up dog waste and depositing it.We use it to work out under the gazebos and various shade trees on the big lawn.Huge boulders surround the high points of the park. If youre careful, they make for interesting use. Working out to photo ops.The park runs in a loop with inner loop. Great for short runs. I skate it. You can also explore down to the Brandywine from the parking lot under the tower.The bathrooms are located under the water tower and are clean. Theres a couple parking in front of the bathrooms.The people are good to the surroundings. The tower is a nice backdrop for photos, tours are available.

Beautiful park. Nice walking/run path. Lovely view if you visit and climb the tower. Great location for gathering for events/fundraising, 5K walks etc.

Great place to walk, or just sit on the bench and have picnic. Great dog park, be sure to check yours pet for flee. Mine had a flee on his coat when I checked him even though he had on a flee collar.

We take our dog here on the regular. Its a huge space, and although no fenced in, it has plenty of room if you want to spend some time with just your dog. Park is well maintained and occasionally offer live entertainment like music

Brandywine Creek Waterfall. Path from Alapochas Woods park. Great place to swim and catch some sunlight

It’s unreal how beautiful this park is.

Great morning walk. #Views

Beautiful park. Dog friendly. Vast rolling grass hill surrounded by hiking hills studding with boulders and majestic trees on one side and antique mansions on the other, and a huge old tower at the top of the hill. Definitely worth visiting

Small park, great views.

Very nice, beautiful park.

Nice. Very clean. Great for walking. Tower is beautiful.

Kids love it, My Daughter plays softball here.

Love the vegetation,nice place for a early morning or evening stroll..

Really nice park with lots of open space. It’s big enough that even when it’s crowded, it’s still not too loud.

Love Rockford Park. Clean. Quite. Scenic. You cant ask for much more. Also an excellent sledding spot in the winter months. If you are into photography Rockford offers many opportunities in every season.

Magical and peaceful! The old structures stand out in the large park area and you gp around on a nice walk all around on the paved streets. There is adequate space for playing with your pets in the park. Tennis courts are available.

A nice park, good for walking, with or without your pup!

Great park to relax

Great place for sports such as tennis, baseball, soccer, and football. Not the best for running, as the park is rather small. The dog area is nice as well.

Well kept with many sports options

Its coming home for me. Nice to see that is just like I remember. Thanks

This is a beautiful park. The trails are really nice and the dog park is fun for our two fur babies!

This park is beautiful. If you get lucky during the summer, they have a huge amount of activities going on. Also, if you go there on the right days, the tower is open for you to climb and get a spectacle view of the surrounded area. Tough climb in one go, but so worth it.

Great location for photography

You can go for walks through the woods and its so peaceful. I had an awesome experience climbing all the stairs to get to the top of the tower and if you have a pair of binoculars you can see everywhere around Wilmington...it was great.

Beautiful, peaceful and serene!

Nice, quiet park. Lots of Porto potties and well maintained.

I love going to the dog park, its a popular spot for dog owners!

Beautiful views and fantastic picturesque areas for nature enthusiasts and outdoor runners, walkers, and cyclists

A great place for anyone looking for outdoor fun

Great park

Nice park. Hilly. Climb the water tower some day. Its a great workout.

Off the beaten path, but still cool to see. Apparently closed for the season, which wasnt advertised so I couldnt go in the tower.

This place is special for me; Ive been coming here as a lifelong resident of Wilmington. Great place to take the family for a walk,(dont forget to bring the family puppy!) picnic, take photos, play tennis or baseball, etc. Great Sledding location in the winter. Also remember when they reopened the tower (circa 2002?) every weekend. Amazing 360 view of Philadelphia, Jersey, and you can see clear down Delaware to the beach. I believe the tower is open on certain weekends now.Of course there is the flower market during the Thursday-Saturday before Mothers Day; a Wilmington Institution. many venders of flowers, herbs, and all other local crafts. If you never been here, check it out, its quite and serene. If its been a while, check it out, it nicer then you remember.

Very open land well cut grass. Awesome for picnic and dogs but no playground for kids that I saw.

Dogs went for a walk

8 doggo puppy party.Emmy and I had a blast at the off leash area

Always loved this park. Love to bring my nephews for a picnic lunch or sledding during snowfall. Well maintained, relaxed atmosphere, with beautiful natural scenery.

Rockford Park has much to enjoy. .From expansive trails, dog park, to an enchanting old tower. No fee to enter. Kept pristine condition. B.T.W. ..the dog park is an open area without fences. If you feel Fido will respond when hes running too far, then its worth taking your pooch there. Have heard , though, sometimes the pups keep going. Mostly, the dogs are having a blast and the pooch parents enjoy each others company.

Very cool park. only reason didnt get 5 stars, not alot of parking

My childhood backyard park. Still amazing and fun

Great place to run and workout. Dogs love it!!

Beautiful park

Large park, great for dogs

A great place to come and connect with Jehovah, the creator if all things!

Spent the day at the Flower Market. Good food, good shopping, good games & rides. Its a great park to spend the day in. ENJOY

Very nice park. Rockford tower has been recently refurbished and is the highlight of the park.

Its your usual nice average park. Worth going to check out and relax.

My sister and I ran a 5k through part of this park and it was beautiful. There are baseball fields, plenty of space for picnicking, and the tower gives you a unique view of the area. The park is near the Delaware Art Museum and easy to get in and out of. Lots of people use the paths for walking or running.

Great time at the flower market

Always a great place to visit, hike or relax.

Beautiful as always.1

I love this spot! Beautiful rolling hill, baseball fields, a dog park and plenty of room to roam.

Phin the dog: Met so many new friends! 10/10 would poop there again

Annual celebration. Great fun great food. Had to be selective on childrens games. Some you were just buying an overpriced stuffed animal.

If youre looking for a nice Hill to go sledding down, this is one of the best in Delaware!

Beautiful park, the grounds are kept very well. Nice walking trails

I grew up around this place. Has a great view of the city from the top.

My K-9 love the dog park

Attended a summer r&b blues concert, very relaxing with a number of mixed cultures that attached.

Great place to walk and enjoy the the water

Great place to enjoy

Beautiful and wonderful dog park

Great spot for a walk!

Beautiful park .

Nice urban oasis.

Parking around the bottom of the p

Open areas for walking and great for dogs. There is a water fountain and places to walk and throw frisbees.

I love this park. Its beautiful, well-maintained, and just a lovely place to spend the day. I grew up with a poster in our kitchen that had this park in it with the water tower. And my grandmother would tell me how when she was a young girl she would go to this park and the water tower was there and now my grandparents are buried across the street at Mount Salem Cemetery. So whenever I go to visit their grave, I stop by the park as well. And I love how you can hear the church bells from the church thats on the corner and its just very peaceful and lovely. Even when theres a lot of people there its still a very tranquil and nice area to spend some time reflecting and thinking about the best grandmother in the whole world.

Good for running, playing tennis or practicing baseball on R just hanging around or picnicking. Best thing is that I s never t very crowded.

Wide open space and easy access.

Always love this place for the friendly dog park, the nicely maintained walking paths, cliffs and the beautiful scenery and there is a building for rest rooms not an out house for those who are out house phobic JTLYK for a relaxi g day with nature its a nice place and right outside of city limits in a nice area! Free bands in the summer too.

Such a great off leash dog park, usually has tennis balls, shade, and tons of space for running.

Stayed in the car, but rode around the park. It was beautiful, cant wait to go back when the trees have bloomed.

Beautiful place to take the baby for s walk. They also often have fun events here like festivals and the JDRF walk.

Beautiful park full of amenities and wonderful scenic views.

Nice and quiet, has a bathroom for the public. Nice gazebo to sit, historic statues to read about. Great place to jog, wall and run. Dog park right next to the park. Small picnic area to spend the day, closed at set sunset so no real camping, and grill area.

Beautiful views.

Clean and easy to see!

Fun time. Tower is open on Sundays!

Peace and quiet

An excellent park for strolling or learning area history. The annual ice cream festival is a local favorite. Dont miss the haunted house tour.

Great park to take a walk or take your dog

Great place to walk,picnic enjoy the outdoors

Fun time to walk or jogged , when its sunny

Good views up the tower about Dupont heritage. Tennis courts around. Good place for weekend family fun

Odd that cars drive through here but there are NO sidewalks. Nice views but unsafe and awkward

A lovely city park run by the state parks. Tower, ball fields, dog area, woods, paths, overlooks. Free parking.

Nice clean park, have run a few 5ks that start/finish or turn around there. Beware of the hills though!

Beautiful old park thats been around a long time.

Great local park! Cute paved trail/road and also some wooded trails. A fun nature walk though I wish there was a better scenic views of the creek. Also free parking!!!

Very peaceful

Great off- leash dog park. Not fenced so make sure your dog has good recall.
