Rest and Recreation in Claymont
Bellevue State Park This spacious and pleasant former DuPont family estate contains a 1 and 1/8 mile track previously used to race horses, but now used by cyclists and pedestrians. The park also has an outdoor concert cone, pond, cross country course, stables and horses, tennis courts, recycling bins, picnic pavilions, hiking trails, a Frisbee golf course, playground equipment, a nature center, ornate former DuPont buildings, and personal garden plots.
Fox Point State Park, located between the paint factory and the steel mill, and lying on a thin reclaimed strip of former industrial wasteland between Governor Prinz Boulevard, I-495, two sets of railroad tracks, and the Delaware River, this is a pleasant, green, and peaceful place in the midst of some of Delaware's least-pleasant scenery. There is bike trail, playground equipment, picnic areas, and ample opportunities to watch container and tanker ships sail by. The riverfront view offers a unique panorama consisting of New Jersey shore, the above-mentioned industry, the Marcus Hook oil refineries, and (on clear days) the Philadelphia skyline.
