Great walking area. The path around the water is nicely paved. The view is tremendous on a clear day. Be warned, there is a pretty steep hike up a hill to get to the loop around the reservoir. So make sure you are ready for a bit of a work out (but that's probably why you're there anyways). You will be sharing the area with the local wildlife, so be mindful of geese, ducks, and other little critters. Parking is plentiful at the bottom of the hill and free of course.

It is a beautiful site to chill, walk, run and detach from home and work demands. Birds are chirping, flowers are blooming, people are walking and laughing. But the cons are so many people in there, so hard to find a parking spot in the evening, you need to park along side the street or the other side of parking lot. Also for the social distancing is not friendly. People are running closely to each other. No mask on. You’d definitely go there not at its peak hours.

I’ve been coming here for years and it’s such a gem sitting right in Newark Delaware. Sunrise and sunsets are amazing! There is a huge playground for kids, trails for run/walk, and a hill to go up and down for fitness! I read the trailhead sign today that said the Newark Reservoir holds enough water to supply enough plastic bottles of water to stretch from here to the moon, that fact blew my mind!

Insane Experience. While at this park, I saw a person wearing nothing but a black morph suit sitting on a bench. I was so confused I had to ask him what he was doing. This started a conversation that single handedly changed my entire worldview and quite literally saved my life. As if that wasn't amazing enough, he then proceeded to lead me into the woods on the path nearby and introduce me to the most pleasurable experience I have ever had. How did he do that with his gloved hands? Anyways, I would love to wander into this park on any...
