Lake Beresford Park is
within the Lake Beresford Greenway, a 210-acre parcel that was acquired
with assistance from the Florida Communities Trust in 1991. The park is
highlighted by a 1.8-mile multi-use trail that follows the perimeter of
the parcel. This trail connect to the Spring-to-Spring Trail,
which allows patrons to walk, run, skate or bike three miles down to
Blue Spring State Park.
The two nature trails in the
northern portion of the park will remain open for those who prefer a
more natural hiking experience. Other amenities include a modern
restroom facility, two pavilions, two playgrounds, and plenty of paved
parking spaces for your convenience. The park opened in spring 2007.
