Lums Pond State Park

Lums Pond State Park, located 20 minutes south of Newark, Delaware, features a 200 acre freshwater pond that is popular for fishing and boating. A 7 mile hiking trail along the perimeter of the pond affords picturesque views of the water. In addition to the hiking trail, there is a 10 mile multi-use trail, but note that this trail can be quite boggy in places and at times is impassable by bicycle.  Lums Pond also has a campground next to the lake, and several picnic areas located throughout the park.
