Best park around! My father spent almost everyday here cleaning, fixing up, fishing disc out of the pond an returning them, playing disc golf here with all the wonderful people of River City Disc golf club along with anyone who showed up and needed help. Now in his honor I bring my son out to keep his legacy going in giving back to the park and disc golfers. The disc golf club and community along with his family want to name the disc golf course after Daddy Dave Tyree. If anyone can help make this dream come true please reach out to us. You can find the club name above on Facebook also.

Spacious, easy to find parking and plenty of paths. Not very secluded but good for a casual park trip. Good for picnics and kicking a ball around/playing some frisbee, walking the dog, etc.

Bryan Park has a lot of green space and its very accessible. I dont play frisbee golf so sometimes I find that annoying, and there is also a lot of highway noise from I-95/I-64... but its super convenient. I recommend walking the Azalea trail in the Spring.

Beautiful park with one of the best disc golf courses in Richmond. The disc golf is definitely for more experienced players. Not complaining but letting you know people love to make out here so he prepared.

Bryan Park has a very nice playground for children of all ages. There are swings, slides, seesaws, and climbing equipment. My 2 year old had a blast!

Bryan Park is nestled just outside the city at the 95/64 interchange, so its easy to get to from any direction. The park itself has a little bit of everything to accommodate the needs of social sports or family outings. The nature center is a must see and a true nature center that not only creates a fun family friendly atmosphere, but very educating as well.If youre like me then you love finding new places to hike, fish and enjoy the outdoors. This has it all. The trails look like they should be in an urban area, which is very good given how close the park is to the city.So if youre looking for a place to escape the craziness of this world, even just for a few hours; go to Bryan Park.

Beautiful park visited for the Grow RVA Farmers Market which was amazing! Live animals, fresh fruits & veggies, homemade breads and pastries, fresh flowers, micro brews, coffee & food stands. Jewelry, handcrafted soaps and you can bring your dogs!

The park is immense. Great area for walking and just enjoying an afternoon out or a morning run. They also have a farmers market on Saturdays with plenty of vendors, good snacks, fresh eggs, frozen gourmet packaged food for sale (which are amazing). Great atmosphere. Make sure you bring a mask.

Nice, big park...lots of space to spread out. Be warned though...the frisbee guys own the park, not the city. We were there filming an interview and two guys walked into our frame to play and told us we needed to move. Rude!

I would love this park, but too many people dont follow the leash law there. I have been bitten by unleashed dogs there twice, and have had countless run ins with unleashed dogs. Otherwise, its a great place for all kinds of activities. I bike, run, walk, and pre-virus brought my son there to play at the play ground and ride his bike along the paved trail.

Lots of trees and varied plant life. Plenty of open spaces as well for running around, tossing frisbee. Would like to see better upkeep though. One pond had algae everywhere and the roads need paving. All in all, not bad.

The Park is a wonderful place. It is clean, and well groomed. The wooded trails need some work. There are a few trees down. But given the current situation, it can be overlooked.

I throw discs here with my friends. I hit a goose once with a frisbee and I was all worried I hurt it, but it was ok but now is a pro life activist, so I guess i should have thrown it a little extra hard. How come we cant adopt gooses at the SPCA?

Beautiful and large park with some great nature trails and streams and wild and edible plant sightings. Good place to forage mushrooms too.

I love the open space of this park and the amount of parking available. Children play soccer in the fields. There is a tennis court or two. A dragonfly-butterfly-themed playground is ever fun for adults. It includes swing sets!This is my favorite park in the Richmond area period, end of story. They had a program in which goats of all shapes and sizes were moved about the park to eat up the harmful weeds growing over the trees. These little guys worked fast. They were used to being watched and some small guys would follow me around when i tried to see other goats around the enclosure.There are ponds and rivers and swamps to view with wildlife and nature all around! Lilly pads, frogs, turtles, ducks, and geese! In the back, they maintain a wildlife area with plants specifically planted to bring butterflies into the area- hence the butterfly-themed playground!There is a trail in the back this is good for hiking. You can also find a bike trail which is paved nicely like a road.Obviously i cant stress enough how amazing this park is. This is an asset to the community and we should all work to preserve it.

Bryan park is one of Lakesides finest features. Its huge, has one of the best disc golf courses in Virginia, and its full of hidden treasures I dare not speak here. But spend some time walking around, youll find little trail heads that lead you to interesting places.It is, however, sadly underfunded by the powers that be. There is a great group of volunteers and staff that work dutifully to keep it nice for the rest of us, but $$$ is needed to really bring the potential of Bryan Park out. I wish there were more to this place, but its still a beauty unto itself.

I grew up going to this park. I lived right down the road from it for years and years. Its lost some of its former glory, but its still a really great place to walk the dogs or have a picnic. Theyve even got a kids play area now (which didnt exist when I was young. Im jealous.).

Review №60

Clear, paved running paths, a disc golf course and lots of green open spaces. Great place to walk the dog get a bit of exercise in. Just not on Saturday mornings. At least not if you desire any quiet whatsoever. Local soccer teams use the area for practice. Not complaining, just be aware theres a lot of soccer mom traffic that time of day and week.

Review №61

The park was quite lovely today. Azeleas starting to do their thing and lots of trees in bloom. This park should be great place to walk and or bike, but too many people choose to ignore the leash law for their dogs. We were accosted by 2 large dogs today. They were friendly, thank goodness, but none the less they frightened my little Grandson. So if you are walking/biking you have to be on constant lookout for unleashed dogs. Its very disturbing.
