Bellevue State Park in Wilmington occupies a former du Pont family estate, and the grounds still carry the feel of a private country retreat. Landscaped lawns, mature trees and a formal garden give the park a polished, park-like character that stands apart from wilder natural areas. The historic Bellevue Hall anchors the property, and a lake and walking track invite visitors to stroll, jog or simply relax outdoors. It is a popular spot for daily exercise, picnics and quiet time close to the city. Admission is $4 for Delaware residents and $8 for out-of-state visitors on weekdays, and $8 and $16 on weekends, from March through November. The park's compact size and easy access make it ideal for an afternoon visit.
