The Newark Reservoir in Delaware holds over 300 million gallons of water which is pumped from the nearby White Clay Creek. In addition to stocking up water for the city, there are several recreational uses for the reservoir as well. You can take advantage of the nearly two-mile-long paved walking trails, some of which winds around the reservoir. The trails are great for visitors of all ages and skill levels; you can bring along your furry family members as well as long as they’re kept on a leash. The site is connected to William M. Redd, Jr. Park which offers additional outdoor recreational facilities for visitors. You’re sure to be taken aback by the beautiful views you’ll see of the city and surrounding areas.
