Lititz Springs Park

I’ve walked around Lititz Springs Park and find it to be the most quaint and perfect park to walk around and relax in…
THE GOOD…
–there’s parking inside park
–very clean
–lots of pretty ducks that swim and waddle around
–Lititz area is nice with great restaurants nearby
–playground for kids
–several benches around
THE BAD…
–some benches have these metal-​like nameplates towards top… The corners are very sharp.
Overall, I’d recommend this park for a leisurely stroll or relaxing sit down. Perhaps events are nice too, but haven’t experienced those yet.

During a road trip around Pennsylvania last year I made several stops in small towns. One of those stops was in Lititz for some local flavor, lunch and of course beer. I didn’t have much time to wander around to all the shops and such but I did make time for the Lititz Springs Park.
I took my time to walk the length of the park and take in the calm beauty just off the main road. It’s a fantastic place to relax and just enjoy a warm sunny day. I walked by the Welcome Center (an old train station) and checked out the Caboose (inside you’ll find some local railroading history) before wandering deeper into the park. There’s a gazebo, pavilions, playgrounds and a band shell all within the park confines. There were no events the day I was there but concerts and community events are often held here. The park is also dog friendly.
What struck me most, though, was the ducks who take up residence there. They looked so peaceful on the water or in the grass. Some sleeping in the shade, some basking in the sun. I was mesmerized watching them enjoying the glorious day. I’ve never wanted to be a duck so badly in all my life.
Lititz Springs Park is easily accessible and highly recommended. If I lived in Lititz, I would be at the Springs Park on a regular basis.

One of the best places to visit. It is small town America. From out experience, which is quite extensive now, it’s clean, we’ll maintained, popular and close to great restaurants and shops.

Went to see the ice sculptures from the Fire & Ice Festival. Nice little park. They have activities of all kinds throughout the year. Very close to multiple eateries, pubs and shopping.

Normally I wouldn’t visit an urban park on a trip — but Lititz Springs Park I made an exception and I was glad I did. It is conveniently located right downtown, next to Wilbur Chocolates. It’s a delightful little park with a small stream through it. They allow you to feed the ducks here, and even provide food for a small fee. Perfect for the toddler set. They have two playground areas, one for big kids and one for smaller children. Locals frequent the park, taking leisurely strolls and enjoying the many outdoor concerts and movies during the summer. Add a little museum and caboose and you’ve got a great little stop in this quaint town.

We went a few months ago when it was warm out, and ate our Tomato Pie Café takeout in Lititz Springs Park across the street. The park is very quaint, with mock-​Victorian décor (benches, street lamps, etc.), running through it is a little stone-​lined canal filled with ducks and geese. There is a large playground toward the back, and various picnic tables, covered picnicking, public restrooms, etc. Our dogs were with us, leashed, and enjoyed it too.
What was sad to us was while the shops and eateries in town tried very hard to cater to a decidedly upscale market, the locals in the park comprised a lot of teen moms (dressed like MTV’s teen moms), and other families, who looked like they didn’t belong in their own froo-​froo town. It was a really weird contrast. While the rest of Lancaster County plays up the farm/​Amish themes, Lititz seems to go after the Ye Olde Victorian fantasy.
The park and town were very crowded with tourists, most of whom seemed to be in the chocolate factory beside the park. The park was a nice restful place to eat lunch, and while a bit crowded, not terrible, even at the height of tourist season.

Lititz Springs Park is really neat. They have a caboose, grills, walking trails, a welcome center, restrooms, and a playground. I used to run through here all of the time and you really get a 2^nd wind when you jog through the park.
They also host the popular Lititz Craft Show during the summer every year. On 4^th of July there is a ton of events all day long leading up to the Lititz fireworks. Grab some chocolate at Wilbur and eat it in Lititz Springs Park.

Great little park for walking, enjoying ducks and children’s play. The park is kept very clean considering how many ducks are always in the park. Duck feeding stations are available but bring your old bread. The park is also pet friendly!

What a great little park. Sit back, relax in the shade of a great tree and let the little ones feed the ducks.
Throughout the year there are so many events in this park and too miss them is ashame.
There is the Fire & Ice Festival, Lititz Art Festival, Lititz Craft Festival, Independence Day Celebration, and movies in the park to name just a few.
Always worth stopping by.

We often visit this park when coming to visit/​babysit my girlfriend’s nephew. He is 3 and has a ton of energy. What better way than letting him run around this expansive, gorgeous park. The city of Lititz itself is something out of a humble figurines display. It’s just beyond cute and cozy. The park is huge and features a neat waterway and fountain that are the home to numerous ducks and ducklings. Everyone was fixated on the new duck hatchlings. They have food there to buy if you would like to feed them.
Further down in the park features a playground area featuring swings, a kiddie train for climbing and playing pretend and a jungle gym. Her nephew had a blast and didn’t want to leave. There were so many kids here, but never felt too overwhelming.
This is a must visit when coming to Lititz.

Gottes Brünnlein hat Wasser die Fülle. Klaro.

On our recent visit to Lititz, Pa we stopped at the Lititz springs Park, There is a visitors center with all sorts of information on area activities, discounts, coupons and free maps. There was a list of activities & events for the next few weeks. The center was staffed by an elderly gentleman who was very helpful and explained a lot of info & history to me.
There also is a gazebo, which would be great for picnics, a Railroad car, and the springs themselves, which had a large amount of ducks nearby. It wasnt raining it would have been a much better visit.
