Description:
The Northern Delaware Greenway Trail spans 9 miles of northern New Castle County from Fox Point State Park on the Delaware River to the Brandywine Creek and the City of Wilmington. This urban trail connects with Wilmington's Walkway System and links together residential communities, schools, businesses, parks and cultural sites. Just about half of the nine miles is rail-trail over a level riding surface. The rest of the trail is filled with rolling curves and short drops so leave the in-line skates at home and prepare yourself for a nice stroll or a fun bike ride with the family and friends. A map of the entire trail system is located on the Delaware Greenways web site http://www.delawaregreenways.org/maps.html

Trail ends before reaching Fox Point SP
By Ron White in October, 2007
"This is a nice trail, about 4 miles long at this time. There is no trailhead at Fox Point State Park as I discovered after paying a $6 (out of state auto) parking fee. "
Not suited for inline skating
By Westy Bell in September, 2003
"Discovering that this was an asphalt trail, I drove about an hour intending to skate this trail on my inline skates. To my dismay I found it was unsuitable for skating. That is unless you are skilled enough to make the 90 degree turns at the bottoms of steep hills without hitting any trees at the high rate of speed you will find yourself traveling and if you can also find a way to keep from being thrown off your skates by all the debris on the path. In other words, it was way too dangerous to skate on this trail. So my quest continues for inline skating trails.

If anyone knows of any close to Dover, Delaware, feel free to shoot me an email."
Great trails!
By Judy Hodgson in August, 2002
"I commute to work on this trail from Bellevue State Park through Bringhurst Woods and into Rockwood Park. The trails are fabulous! They are paved, in woods, curvey, and hilly. I've also ridden from Bellevue State Park to try to get to Fox Point State Park, but there is no way to cross Rt 13 and I-495. I've also walked the trail at Fox Point State Park along the Delaware River. Again it is paved and nice (though the fact that Fox Point was some sort of Super Fund Site doesn't make it too appealing).

I haven't found a way to connect Rockwood Park to Brandywine Park. I would love to learn if it is connected, but as far as I know, they are not connected yet."
