Rockwood Park

Great park for biking, walking, and hiking. Also great for swimming in the summertime and picnics. There's tons of trails with different terrain difficulties for everyone. Awesome park.

Gorgeous lake and wood park walkable from town. Saw a couple of deer, a small red squirrel and plenty of birds and frogs

A great, safe experience. The shuttles were great and helpful in getting from the center to the rocks. The Rocks are so impressive. Staff where friendly and helpful.

Very nice stuff, not bad campground. We were parked in the gravel area. Not even a fire pit, Wi-Fi was shotty.

Lots of different trails, great for bird watching, a lot of wildlife and a wonderful park for all ages.

Come for the endless evergreen hiking and biking trails, stay for the lakes and wildlife. Rockwood Park is 2200 acres of natural surroundings in the heart of Saint John. Your kids and dogs will love it here.

One of the nicest in city parks you'll see, good lakes to swim in. Also is has amazing colors in the fall!

Great park for everyone, great walking area. Night lighting for those who don't mind a night stroll.

Very nice place to go hiking and long walks, great for small kids to swim as the water is monitored and not deep, and great place to meditate. It's nice for everyone.

Beautiful park with great hiking trails. I haven't been on the bike paths yet but I hope to soon. Plenty of very pretty views and wildlife. Watching the ducks and geese in the water is a very relaxing way to kill some time if you're in the area. They have facilities if you need to "go" which is also nice.

This a great spot to kick back and relax, we camp and it is so close to all amenities. The on site resautrant us amazing!

Very big divided section parc. Beautiful. Relaxing. One way drive. Clean. But no public washroom. The one we saw was the chemical toilet. Must bring your own chair if you want to sit. Only one Gazibo with fixed table. Just take care when you have kids. The lake and little water cascades.

This place is great for swimming, fishing, picnics, having BBQs, nature trails and seeing local wildlife. There is also a playground here. My kids and I love it here. It's our go to place for a relaxing fun day. Wish I was there right now.

Rockwood Park is a gem within the gray rocky Saint John area. The park, with many accessible features, offers something for people of all ages, diverse interests and abilities. Much of the park is centered around Lily Lake, were fishers, swimmers and canoers share the water with a variety of birds and other wildlife. Deer sightings are common in the park. Many trails are available for walkers, joggers, and cyclists. The lake side restaurant offers good food in a calm and scenic location. Accessible public washrooms can be found in the same building.

An amzing place for everyone, from rock climbing to biking (Amazing trails and park.) To novis ealking trails well groomed and paved sections as well. They have anything that prettymuch floats and an amazing helpful staff. Check out the information station. One time they had turtles in there.fun for the whole fam from adrénaline seekers to a beautiful view while grabbing a bite and maybe a couple refreshments.:)

Absolutely beautiful park. It's our go to for walking our puppy. Lots of on-leash trails of varying lengths, so you can try a new path every time you're there!

Excellent location, unfortunately the sites do not have the best drainage its a little more mouzt than I like it. But overall a great place with very clean facilities.

Nice place for kids to play and enjoy.
You can fish there but you need a license to do so.

A nice place to spend time with family or alone.

Beautiful walking trails on some trail you got to see a lot nature including animals and feed birds.

Bike track includes a small shop with some basic handy tool if you want to fix any problem of your bike.

Excellent park for kidds to play.

Horse hut is an added site seing place.

Fishing on the lakes of this park is an excellent experience and safe if you are with young kids.

Better facility at beach some time you even see the life guards too.

Many places for BBQ.

Trailer park what an upscale value.

I think of more public washrooms with a slight better facility can be added this place will be rockstar of the parks.

Great for families wanting a nice place to bring the kids. The restaurant has a very nice padio very close to a beach. That servers food and adult beverages.

Very clean park. Well maintained. We walked around the lake on the gravel pathways. Would be a nice place to bike as well. Numerous benches along the way to sit and take in all of the nature and just watch the birds and squirrels.

Always love going here. Loads of trails, walking and biking. No matter what season there's something to do. Swimming, playground, fishing, hiking,
Biking and ice skating are just a few of fun activities to do.

One of the largest city parks in Canada. Tons of trails, walking paths, campground, golf course and zoo. If you like the outdoors, you are sure to enjoy Rockwood Park.

Really nice and natural park to walk through. With some stopping points to take a break. We went there by taxi from the cruise ship terminal in Saguenay.

Beautiful scenery, fun park, horses and great place for leisure kayaking, man made water beaches

A beautiful spot in the heart of Saint John. Great playground for the kids and usually there are local events taking place.

We're very lucky to have this beautiful park right within our city. Yesterday we spent some time here feeding the horses and watching the birds, squirrel and deer. ️

Such an amazing resource. Beautifully designed and easy to navigate. One of my favourite places in the city.

Park is beautiful. Food at Lily Lake Pav is mediocre. All seafood over over cooked. Disappointing.

Rockwood park, I have so many fond memories in this park from when I was a kid and the park itself has only gotten better. They have tons, and I mean tons of walking trails, fenced dog parks, a restaurant, swimming, loads of awesome biking trails with a dedicated trail building crew. I spend a lot of my summer in there biking. There is something to do for the whole family!

Gem in the centre of the city. All ages can enjoy the park, so beautifully maintained, accessible and lovely. Sad that we didn't know about it sooner.

Lovely park with surprisingly wild nature. We saw deer several times. Some of the trails are under construction, but the path is still well indicated. Some trails are marked as being extra challenging - we didn't have time to go that far, but it would be interesting to see just how challenging we're talking about! There's a cool cave just at the beginning of Pugsley (not sure I spelled it right) trail.

It's an amazing Sunday at Rockhood park.
Memorable day.
Beautiful scenery and atmosphere

This park is romantic and adventurous, It is a place to visit all year long. Have dinner at the restaurant by the lake or have a picnic at the beach. My favourite is the walking trails and the observatory where I can see SJ from the pick of the mountains.

It's a good place to walk with kids. And if the weather's good and it's the right season, theres usually ducks to feed.

Nice view over the city trails for walking around laundry clean bathroom and shower was quiet when we where here

Beautiful park with lovely walking trails & nice picnicking places throughout. The trails are well maintained & there is a sweet little petting farm in the center of the park.

However at sunset the park brings out some pretty scary personalities & is not policed well enough. I wouldn't walk the trails alone thru the day or go at night.

We went to sit on the water side bench to enjoy the evening air & watch the ducks. We just got parked when a man in his early to mid 30's knocked on our windows asking if we were looking for company. We politely told him "No" and he walked away. As we were walking toward the lake we noticed the man lurking around our vechile which made us uncomfortable so we decided to leave. Thankfully the sun was still bright enough that we were comfortable walking to our vechile. The man saw us coming back towards our vechile and approached us again asking if we changed our minds. When we said "No" again; he became agitated/put his hood up muttered some vulgar words. At that point we sounded our car alarm in hopes to scare him off & "THANKFULLY IT WORKED "!

This seems to be a common problem when visiting the park as I've had several people tell me they have had similar experiences thru day & night.

Its a shame as it would be a truly a lovely place to spend a evening star watching or relaxing on one of the many lakeside benches. Its too bad the city doesn't put money into the park policing or security.

This park is great! It has some really cool hidden trails to explore as well and some stunning views over looking the city.

This is the best park, whether you are walking swimming or biking.tons of trails and a restaurant with outside deck right on the water

Several walking trails. Beautiful little lakes throughout the park. Nice play area for kids. Lots of places to park a vehicle and picnic areas.

This is a "must visit" for anyone visiting the city young or old! Many trails, a dog park and a great restuarant (Lily's on the lake) which is actually a not-for-profit restaurant (but dont let that fool you, the quality is great!). Awesome patio that allows dogs and provides their own personal waterbowl. Supervised beach for swimming in the summer, canoe rentals, rock climbing and a spa. It also serves as a wedding venue! The reason I didnt give 5 stars is for 2 reasons: not enough garbage cans considering dogs are allowed and because directional signage is poor (easy to get lost). Especially if you are directionally challeneged like me: p

Nice lake with restaurant. I did not have much time to explore this UNESCO Geopark World Heritage site.

Quaint and quiet, great vibes, friendly neighbors, and inside a gigantic beautiful city wilderness park

What a wonderful setting right in the midst of a lovely city. So very convenient for tourists touring the city by day and driving minutes to their trailers to sleep. Brilliant on someone's part. Having been away for many, many years I am having fun rediscovering my city and seeing it through the eyes of guests. A wonderful charming old city with such potential.

Iv always loved walking threw the trails with my boyfriend and my dog. But people aren't cleaning up after their dogs very well. And there was white foam like pollution in the water. Then you look across the lake and see children swimming in it. I remember when I was a kid people would say it wasn't the cleanest place but now it really isn't. I just stopped going because all the poop everywhere makes it so my dog can't really walk around like he wants and I also won't let him swim there so no more rockwood for us. Really hope they fix this some how I don't think or city could afford a loss like rockwood park
