Gypsy Hill Park

"I always love visiting this park for walks with the pups. Right now it's also set up for the Christmas light show in the evening, still cute to see when you're walking clockwise as opposed to driving counter-."

"Delightful space to spend a day walking, biking, picnicking, reading a good book, and much more. My only wish is that drivers would PUT DOWN THEIR PHONES where everyone is out playing!"

"It's a really large park with plenty of areas for people to swim, have picnics, walk, or feed the fish/birds. There's feeders nearby to get food for them and the has station nearby has feed for really cheap as well"

"We came to Staunton in May of 2015 and were thrilled with this park. It isn't lacking in anything. As soon as one enters the main gates with charming metalwork they're greeted by a stream that meanders across the park and helps to feed a lovely gated pond. The pond houses several ducks, geese, swans, as well as Koi fish. One can purchase handfuls of feed for children to enjoy feeding the fauna. Also, a glorious old bandstand holds various events such as Jazz in the Park for passers-by and folks who choose to sit and enjoy. In the summer months, there is a terrific outdoor swimming pool. One pays a nominal fee for entry daily, or seasonal passes also may be purchased. A quaint open-air train can be ridden during posted hours through the park. In the summer a marvelous outdoor pool is available. There is an exercise area with outdoor designed workout equipment. An oval-shaped paved path is present for both parking and exercising by riding bikes, jogging, and walking. Towards the far outer edge of the park is another large open pond. At Christmas time various churches, businesses, agencies, clubs, and families contribute by sharing their light displays throughout the park. It is beautiful and festive. Other events are held throughout the year, such as art shows, and community meetings. There are activities for all ages. Among the other facilities are tennis courts, skateboard and/or bicycle half pipes, an outdoor basketball court, and an 18-hole golf course. One is sure to be pleased whether ambling along the tree-lined walkways, exercising, using another wonderful part of the park's many offerings, or resting in the shade on a bench for a bit."
