Read moreFor me this park the second best thing in Lititz; it’s very big, it’s very beautiful, and it’s very calming. They have lots of playground equipment for kids and adults! There are tons of trees, rocks and other natural resources. While you walk on a relaxing walk you can enjoy a beautiful water stream until you see a breathtaking view of water descending into a shower spiral (shown in the photos). You can see one small and one big gazebo for photos taker and scenery enjoyers alike! And in the summer you can get a bite to eat by visiting the food and drink station. You will always see ducks, Summer, Spring, Fall and even Winter you will always see ducks. As many ducks as your heart desires! The Lititz Springs Park has many more wonderful unique options to make...
