Bellevue State Park

Description

Bellevue Hall mansion commands a grand view of this historic estate, and its present form reflects alterations made by William du Pont, Jr. Mr. du Pont surrounded his home with the finest facilities: tennis courts, equestrian stables, gardens, and a picturesque pond, amid woodlands and fields overlooking the Delaware River. The park was acquired by the State of Delaware in 1976.

The Delaware Division of Parks and Recreation has retained the historic charm of Bellevue while providing many opportunities for recreation. Walking and jogging are popular activities at any time of the year. A 1-1/8 mile fitness track circles a catch-and-release fishing pond stocked with bass, catfish, and sunfish, while the nearby exercise trail offers a refreshing workout. Hiking trails allow you to explore other parts of the estate. If you prefer cycling, both paved and unpaved paths lead you on a leisurely tour.

Reviews
This park is truly picturesque, offering a dedicated area for gardening, teeming with lush green vegetables. Its vast expanse accommodates various activities such as fishing, trekking, and hiking. Moreover, it's a haven for children with picnic tables and playgrounds. A stable graces the park, housing magnificent and robust horses . All in all, it's an exceptional place to while away the hours!
Well maintained. Magnificent park. Lot to learn about nature through state park events. I have been to bird watching guided walk for free, spotted more than 20 birds,very informative. Also, I have been to the star gazing event last week. Amazing experience.
Very nice place to visit. Nice and broad waking trail with lots of activities on the track while doing the trail it's very much useful for being active. The play area for kids is very nice, and the party shelter is available at the park. Nice to spend weekends.
Great place for a stroll/walk/jog/bike. Well marked trails, plenty of play area for kids, picnic tables and awesome views. And best of all frisbee golf! We were there out today, on a cold February day, but still had plenty to do.
This park is beautiful and it has plenty of space and seating. I loved that they catered to children/pets needs as well. Unfortunately, there are more turtles than fish in the pond but overall the pond is very nice. Oh and the bathrooms are super clean!
What a gift from William DuPont! Great oval track. Can watch horses or play Frolf. Great park. Concerts in summer on Thursdays and Sundays.
Wonderful break from the rest of the world. Well taken care of, good signage to find what you're looking for within the park. Beautiful disc golf course with great upkeep. Plenty of great picnic tables and great walking trails.
The staff is friendly, I was here for the egg hunt event and it was wonderfully planned and executed, thanks to the staff. I will be back to explore the park and for the trail walk
Grew up just a few miles from this park. So many memories and I'm thrilled to be able to make new ones with my babies. Great track, hiking trails, playground, fishing pond, and you're almost guaranteed to spot a deer any time you go.
Bellevue is always a pleasure to visit. Our toddler loves playing in the swings and slides at the park. The magnificent horses are added attractions to our toddler. She always insists on visiting the stables and loves looking at the horses. We enjoyed the stroller friendly paths inside the park. In addition there's a small pond with a few turtles chilling on the shores. We definitely recommend this place for folks who would want to spend their weekends with toddlers and keep them engaged.
