About the Riverview Park
Riverview Park, located at 1909 Chesapeake Street in Charlottesville, Virginia, is a picturesque 26.6-acre park that borders the river. Originally donated by Riverview Cemetery in 1974, the park was renovated in 1989 and has since become a popular tourist attraction.
The park features a large paved parking area, a kiosk, a playground, benches, and an open field, making it an ideal spot for picnics and family outings. Visitors can enjoy walking, jogging, biking, fishing, or simply observing wildlife along the adjacent Rivanna Trail. The park is open from 6AM to 9PM daily.
On Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays, dogs are allowed off-leash on designated portions of the trail within Riverview Park. However, dogs must be on a leash and under control in all other areas of the park, as per city code. Dog owners are required to clean up after their pets, and waste removal bags are provided near the kiosk.
The Rivanna Trail, a handicapped-accessible paved trail, starts at Riverview Park and extends north for about 2.3 miles, passing under Free Bridge and Route 250 East along the Rivanna River. This trail is part of the Rivanna Trails Foundation system, which encircles the city and is maintained by a private non-profit foundation.
Riverview Park is also a designated stop on the Virginia Birding and Wildlife Trail, attracting birdwatchers and nature enthusiasts from near and far. Whether you're looking for a peaceful stroll along the river or a fun-filled day with the family, Riverview Park offers something for everyone to enjoy.
