kia • February 21, 2015Very nice park to walk your dog, catch up on some reading or just relaxing enjoying the view. It really looks beautiful just hitting Spring season as the trees and flowers start to bloom.
Coach Todd P. • February 2, 2014A great place to cross-train on some trails via a hike, climb, run, walk, mountain bike... is at Philly's Fairmount Park, the Park covers (4,180 acres), and is the largest landscaped park in the U.S.
vivian z. • October 22, 2014This is a great community spot in west philly. People come here for the farmers market, playgrounds for kids and walking their dogs. Overall the atmosphere is great.
Durrock K. • January 16, 2012Wonderful park and Nice scenery. One of the best things about Center City.
Oz L. • July 5, 2015This is a really great little park. It got a very unique perspective and feels like a small sliver of the highline in Philly.
Stef H. • June 28, 2016In nice weather, a unique outdoor park with hammocks hanging from trees, food & drink vendors, a small restaurant on the water, and lights that make it magical at night. Daytime games and crafts.
Samuel S. • October 25, 2016Best dirt biking park in the Philly area. This place is huge and has a great variety of trails. It's a gorgeous walk, too.
Cristina A. • March 15, 2017Beautiful park. It has a lot of open space. It's great for kids, dog lovers, and anyone who likes to relax in the park.
Tom S. • August 27, 2014Fantastic, recently recovered park space. There's a subway stop in the park that will eventually reopen, and the park features a memorial to fallen police, firefighters, detectives, etc.
Museum Without Walls • November 9, 2011‘The Washington Monument’ was unveiled in 1897 at the Green Street entrance to Fairmount Park. Then, upon the completion of the Parkway in 1928, the monument was moved to where you see it now.
Brett G. • August 30, 2015Catch a concert, watch some people, then head over to Spruce Street Harbor Park and get in a hammock.
John R. • March 26, 2016Great views of the skyline in an elevated, park like setting; easy to get too with parking and centrally located. Plenty of bike parking too, and very close to the Schuylkill River Trail :) + Free!
Maddie L. • July 6, 2018ALL kinds of hiking and walking. No matter what level of hiking capability you have, there's a trail for you here. Also good for swimming in the creek on hot days and woodsy cookouts.
Michael H. • August 22, 2018Nice little playground with cushioned artificial turf. Lots of doggos walking around too. No water fountains or restrooms, so plan ahead.
Katie C. • October 25, 2015Must See for any visit to the Philly area. Bring walking/jogging shoes or a bike (or rent one) and cruise around the entire Fairmont Park area to the art museum. Fun views of the river and city.
Cam B. • July 31, 2019A great walking, running, cycling park. Chances are, you will see wildlife. Enjoy year round, but avoid after heavy rain for low lying sections of trail.
