Indian River Park

Phone: 757-382-6411	Fax: 757-277-9365	Email: PRGenera@cityofchesapeake.net
Address: 1709 Rokeby Avenue, Chesapeake, VA 23325

This 91-acre park, which contains a natural 70-acre area, is located between Paramont and Rokeby Avenues. It stretches south from Providence Road to the Virginia Beach city line. The park consists of large mature hardwood and pines, baseball field, play area and girl's club. A small creek winds the entire length of the property and has space for a get-away when you don't have the time to get away. The park offers a nearby place to discover adventures on the trails-either walking, hiking or biking. For those who like extreme adventures it has series of trails and jumps for bikes and the BMX communities.
