The Importance of Darden Towe Park in Charlottesville, VA

Darden Towe Park, situated between the Rivanna River and Interstate 64 in Charlottesville, VA, is likely to be the most recognizable and beloved park in the city. With its tranquil creek, giant sequoias, and breathtaking views of the Blue Ridge Mountains, it has become a destination spot for locals and tourists alike. Visitors come to swim, fish, powerwalk, kayak, bird watch, or simply relax and take in the scenery. The Park has long been a community object of pride, and with good reason. Learn more here.
Picture
The region in and around the Park has a history that speaks to America’s values and ideals: a love of nature and a belief in community. The Park is named after African-American creekside property descriptors Elder Darden and Carmen Towe, who willed their property to the City of Charlottesville in the late 1990s. Before that, the Park was farmland that had been continuously farmed since the colonial period. The Park has several unique features that make it a popular destination. Darden Towe is home to several groves of giant sequoia trees, some of which are up to 130 feet tall. These trees serve as a reminder of the history and beauty of the area. There are also many trails around the Park, allowing hikers and cyclists to explore scenic areas.  In addition, two streams are found in the Park: Sam's Creek and Thacker's Creek. These provide opportunities to fish and kayak while also offering a chance to learn about local wildlife and geography. Learn more about The Interesting Things of Virginia Discovery Museum in Charlottesville, VA.
