Olmsteds masterpiece. From the huge fields and golf course in the Eastern part to the pond and museums in the West, its magnificent. The most remarkable part to me is the sense of privacy that the rolling landscaping lends you around the walking tails near the pond. Shakespeare in the Park is also a staple experience of Buffalo in the summer, and its stage is located in the "natural" amphitheater near the rose gardens, so theres that! So much to love here.

Sprawling, beautiful, and with lots of activities. Golf, strength training, basketball, cycling loop, running, tennis, model boats, the Buffalo zoo, and the Albright-Knox Art Museum are all available to you! Parking can be right near the zoo, but going over to the tennis courts and walking over to the main park area is a perfect way to avoid all that.

This park is HUGE! Theres a whole zoo inside. A great area for walking or jogging. Theres entertainment in the summer and you can watch a great Rugby game during the season. Theres also a basketball and tennis court. Very convenient location for those who attend Canisius College or live in the Elmwood area around Albright Knox!

Huge park, diverse, well-kept, gorgeous homes/mansions, a sky ramp to cross from one side to the other, rose garden event area, History Museum with incredible grandfather clock, Japanese Garden path, and much more. I gave it 4* instead of *5 because the traffic on the expressway going through it is loud and disrupts the zen.

An absolutely fantastic park to take a stroll or take in a beautiful view of the lake, gorgeous sunsets, or the excellent playground for children. It is also our favourite place to visit on summer nights to take in a play on the hill at Shakespeare in Delaware Park. Always a fabulous place to visit!

Wonderful place to excersize, easy access to the park from multiple directions and there is a large shared path for cyclists and pedestrians only. There is an Ashkers juice stand that offers free water for hot days. Just get some bug spray on if youre going to be on foot and stationary for a while.

Delaware Park is a great place for family outings, walks, exercises and more. The scenery is very beautiful, especially by the lake. The only thing that is ok about the park is that if there is any major events like the corporate challenge, parking gets difficult a.d traffic gets really congested.

Relajante e ideal para el verano, se respira aire fresco es ideal para pasar una tarde tranquila un poco mas cerca de la Naturaleza.

Striking sculptures surrounding a pond, laced with a smooth paved trail for walks and bikes. Shakespeare in the park brings the community together every summer for fun and entertainment. Theres also a playground and a rose garden. Dangerous to walk at night though.

Lydia Lockhart

This park has everything! There is a seasonal juice bar located near the zoo area and on the opposite side of the park (near the Albright Knox Museum) there is a lovely rose garden and playground. During the summer the park hosts a serious of Shakespeare plays.

Such a gem in the middle of a city. Its a beautiful park to walk and bike or go for a picnic. Theres tons of basketball courts and playgrounds for the kids. Theres also a rose garden and a restaurant, as well as Shakespeare in the Park on certain days.

“nice place to hangout” this park hosts the Shakespeare play on some nights. This is also great place for dogs to hangout. There are boats in the lake.Place to sit and walk as much as you wish. This also provides very photogenic locations for capturing

Ill always love this beautiful park. Never gets old. Grew up under the beautiful weeping willows and still to this day love sleeping in soft spots of grass letting the willow brush across my body as i slumber in the natures essence

This could be one of the largest and certainly most beautiful parks in the US. Ohlmstead design. Everything goes on here. Bike paths, canoes, gardens, street performers, Shakespeare, restaurant, art museums, tennis, golf, zoo.

This is an amazing park. The sheer size of it just blew my mind. The summer trees look great to see and I didnt have time to even explore the whole park. There is a zoo close by and parking is free outside the zoo parking lot.

I truly love Delaware park but the bathroom situation near the track field is ridiculous. Step it people, theres kids out here that need those facilities we need more attendants available. Especially on the weekend

Alan Ulicny

Great Time at "Shakespeare in the Park". Made our 2x seasonal trip to SDP last night to see "The Merry Wives of Windsor". Awesome show and well-done by all involved. Delaware Park is a great place for this show.

The best place to walk with family and friends, also PLEASE support me for the Leukemia and Lymphoma light the night walk...I had a rare forum of Leukemia. I am 1 of 9 survivors, (for that, theirs a cure NOW

Always a beautiful park to visit. I highly recommend you visit the rose garden just south of Marcy Casino. The garden is just breathtakingly beautiful, with a delightful aroma of fresh roses and other flowers.

Melvin Lewis

Nice place to play a round of golf or exercise as most of us do there. Buffalo zoo is next door, Albright- Knox art gallery is at the other end and History museum sits at another corner of the parking.

Ryan Scully

One of the few truly beautiful places in buffalo. Not just the scenery, but the people. You will find people smiling, families bonding, and general infectious happiness. Always worth going through!

jordan pirdy

A worthy stop as a local, a traveler or a tourist. Fredrick law olmstead and olmstead parks did, and do a great job (respectively) to create Delaware park, and its many sections, nooks and crannies.

Sare Anuszkiewicz

Its lovely and serene here. My husband and I like to run through the park, but its also lovely to picnic here and enjoy nature. Ok, sometimes we also hug the trees. But theyre really nice trees.

Garrett Munguia

A really beautiful park that offers a variety of spaces for different activities. Be it you wan to play soccer, go on the swings, golf, or run, you get it all, and very nice views by the pond.

Jake Hayes

Whenever Im stressed about something.i can just go for a walk on our beautiful park and find some peace. The trees are super green.the grass is well kept. I love the Walker/biker safe lane.

Raven Bell

I love Delaware Park! Its so serene and calm. Always a good vibe when I go, and always clean. Always have nice positive, family friendly events going on and everyone is always friendly

Beatrice McMahon

A great place to take kids and exercise. There are multiple play grounds, a walking loop and a golf course. There are many events held here and it surrounds the Buffalo Zoo.

Mark V

The best park in the city, in the heart of the city. Great for exercise, loafing, and walking your dogs. If only they hadnt built the 198 right through the center of it.

Miguel Sanchez

Its an ok place to go if you want to walk and talk. Keep in mind the time of year it is and remember its near the water so there is nothing to block the wind. Ok cool park.

Christopher Schaeffer

So many great things, where to start? Golf, walking, green space, soccer, rugby, snacks, zoo, running...everything you could want in an Olmstead park. Highly recommend.

Albert Cowie

Beautiful park, part of the Olmsted park system. You are closely located to numerous shops, bars, and restaurants. There is also a very popular running track.
