Was visiting for a short overnight trip with a friend and we were told to look for the suspension bridge. We almost missed Falls park and were so glad we didn’t! It’s an absolutely amassing and beautiful spot in the downtown area that has a cool bridge for viewing the falls and the city as well as a walking trail. Very clean and well maintained. Seriously must see this spot while you’re in town you won’t be disappointed. We went after dinner and enjoyed the stroll.

Greenville is a delightful small city. The downtown area is beautifully restored and has a great park around the waterfall. We were there on a Sunday afternoon, there were many families enjoying the beautiful January weather of 60*. There are many restaurants and local bars around the area to enjoy. Lots of options for food to take to the park for a picnic. Local musicians performing close to the park area. Treat yourself to a day at Falls Park on the Reedy.

The most beautiful time of year is spring and summer when all of the flowers are in bloom. However, it is always a beautiful park. The falls are most exciting after a big rain. Best areas to park are near The Peace Center (free for 2 hours if you find street parking), near Hampton Inn downtown hotel (garage), or I like to park at the zoo and walk appx 1 mile to the falls. There are several restaurants/cafes in the area. There are some public restrooms.

It's a beautiful park and I loved the view of the Falls from the bridge. But I have to disagree with its "handicap accessibility". I use an electric scooter and couldn't make it back up the ramps. The elevator got me to the lowest level. There are signs on the restaurant between that and the bridge access that say "customers only", so I had to take the ramps up a level. A stranger was kind enough to push me. We wandered on down, but I ended up waiting at the red sculpture for my husband to walk back to the car and come for me.

I went on a summer Sunday afternoon, and it was crowded (not surprised). That part didn't bother me in the least, except maybe difficulty finding a close parking space. The park, bridge and falls were beautiful!!! However, several tall buildings are under construction right on the river. I realize this park is downtown, but that really takes away from the overall ambience. Also, there were many bicyclists on the walkways. Normally, this wouldn't pose any problems, but when there are crowds of people with young children walking and enjoying the scenery, this is not good. I did see several minor bike collisions with people. Lastly, there were some people with large dogs (including pit bulls). These are best left at home, as there were numerous "barking skirmishes" with smaller dogs. Had it not been for these issues (overdeveloping, bicyclists, large dogs), I would rate it a 5; with those in mind, my rating is a 3.

Well, this gem is in the heart of downtown Greenville. A cool water walk. Start by the Lazy Goat restaurant and saunter down the lovely walk way looking across at one of the old textile buildings on the green which lies at the bottom of the Peace Center Theatre DIstrict grounds. Check out the various art stores and tea store as you make your way under the Main Street bridge. Bring checkers, backgammon even cards and play a game under the bridge at one of the many tables and chairs. Watch the ducks as they swim around the river dunking down for nibbles of food. Take a stop and take a load off and enjoy one of the many comfy bench swings under a beautiful wood crafted pergola. Enjoy the unique landscaping beds and gorgeous seasonal flowers -- it truly is an inspriration gazing at these beautifully planned out gardens. Enjoy Shakespeare in the Park (seasonal) on a blanket with a picnic or a to go dinner from one of the many restaurants that line E Main Street and the surrounding area. The up and coming West End is a great place to catch a ball game!(Go Greenville Drive!) Walk up the incredible stone steps and you may catch the young adults in a poetry slam in the green grass circle or playing hacky sac or young kids showing off their gymnastic skills. This is where you'll walk over the falls onto the unique suspension Liberty Bridge and take in the sight and sounds of the falls. So relaxing and mesmerizing. A great place for photos and enjoying one of the many cool places of downtown Greenville! This is for everyone! Solo or groups - business, kids etc!

What a beautiful area...if you go to the Upcountry Museum, you will see what it USED to be like less than 20 years ago. The city has done a fabulous job in turning this area into something that is just beautiful. Get out and walk as far or as little as you want and you'll be surrounded by lovely vegetation, stunning florals, whispering rivers and raging waterfalls, wondrous wildlife, restaurants, art studios, coffee shops and boundless businesses in this bustling urban oasis. We went on a raw and rainy day and it was still delightful

We visited here about 3 years ago in order to view the solar eclipse. We were back for a weekend visit to Greenville, and we walked through here several times. If you see a timeline of how this area was connected with the city over time, it is especially impressive what they've done with it in the last 20 years. It is hard to believe that it was almost covered up with vegetation, pollution, and a traffic bridge through most of the 1990s. Thankfully, someone had the foresight to re-focus and anchor the downtown on this revitalized area. There are so many restaurants and shops to enjoy (there were probably more pre-COVID). The fact that the Swamp Rabbit Trail terminates here and allows walking / running / biking for miles to the north is an added attraction. Any downtown would be lucky to have any sort of feature remotely similar to this. It really sets Greenville apart, IMO.

Besides the fact that it’s beautiful, it’s centrally located in Greenville if you’re downtown and has some great walking paths. See the Peace Bridge and grab an ice cream at Spill the Beans near the entrance. Free Shakespeare performances on Thursday, Friday and Saturday in the park during the summer

The Falls Park is a wonderful place to go. it is a very relaxing place for you and your family to go and walk around or have a picnic. There is a fantastic view and many places to walk around and see. The only problem is that it is in the middle of the city, so it can be noisy, but there are always good distractions there. Overall, a beautiful park to visit.
