    This park is awesome! I’ve driven through it on the loop road with my car in the past, but just recently went and rented bikes with two friends, and we saw more wildlife than I could’ve imagined in less than an hour! We saw three deer two raccoons, multiple bird species and I know that if you rent kayaks there you are likely to see alligators as well! The bike trails are so easy to ride and it’s so enjoyable. The tree covered trails are perfect for sunny days whether you’re biking walking or running. In the summertime, I would recommend going on a cloudy day though.

    Fantastic park, it’s right off 95 so easy to get to and it’s free to enter. Plenty to do here if you are walking, kayaking, biking or just coming for a picnic. They offer rentals and was told you can rent online which is great. There’s are allot of shaded areas in this park which is awesome especially as we approach summer. It’s a trash free park so expect to bring home your garbage and it’s not pet friendly. Overall it’s one of my favorite parks in south Florida wish we had more of them

    Riverbend Park. Sitting just outside the Jupiter area, this park provides everything you could ask for. It contains countless trails, some paved, others dry terrain, and some nearly untouched. Beautiful tree coverage with a massive variety of plants and nature. The many streams and rivers within the park allow for aquatic life to flourish. A phenomenal visitor center, public amenities, and numerous recreational activities provide great entertainment. Individuals may rent bicycles and kayaks within the park, or may bring their own. Overall, the afternoon at Riverbend Park was a phenomenal experience.

    What a beautiful park! Probably one of the best I have been to yet! There are so many trails in so many directions. With beautiful scenery and wild life if you get lucky. I saw a alligator, turtle and lots of Bird's You can walk, ride bike and even kayak around here. They have bike and kayak canoe rentals on site. But you can also bring your own as well. I rode my mountain bike around. I didn't even get to see the trails l because of how big. Plenty of shade. Public restrooms available. Picnic tables and tiki huts available. I'm definitely coming back to bring my kayaks here.

    This is a gorgeous park. It is huge and the wildlife was everywhere! Deer, turkeys, snakes, alligators...oh my 😂 rode my bike on most of the trails and it was a great experience. If you are nearby, you must see this place!

    Overall, great scenery and trails for everyone to enjoy. Excellent job at keeping the trails maintained and clean. Because of the amount of trails, you may want to bring a GPS, lol.. Do bring plenty of water during the summer months, it's extremely hot on the trails. Enjoy the park via hiking, biking or horseback riding.. Just be sure to keep it clean, so everyone can enjoy the beauty. Be safe out there.

    Very relaxing and peaceful to just walk or bike or pray. Though the paths are gravel.. one can use a walker here. Paths are clean and very well taken care of. The visitors to the staff are all very nice and friendly.

    This park is must see and experience in Jupiter area. Easy access with lots of parking lots spread throughout the park. Many different attractions including canoeing, kayaking, hiking, running, biking, fishing and horse riding. Canoes and kayaks can be rented on site. The park is big and allows everybody to find spot for themselves. The best way to experience local nature is to rent canoe and float and paddle downstream with lush sub-tropical greenery on both side of slowly moving water, occasional alligator can be seen as well.

    Such a fun, peaceful and chill experience! Fairly priced and the extremely sweet girls at the front desk helped tremendously with my decision of what to do and gave lots of info. There are plenty of things to see and a place for all ages. I would definitely love to go back soon.

    Very beautiful park abundant in wildlife. I've canoed and walked the trails here and have seen woodpeckers, deer, multiple lizards, alligators (from the canoe). I really like it here and it is free. There are a number of covered picnic areas. The river here is designated Wild and scenic.

    Great park in the middle of strip mall central. This park has one of only two scenic rivers in Florida. The Loxahatchee River is never far from civilization (you can hear cars, a lot), but you feel miles away. There is lots of wildlife here. If you don't go early in the day, you'll probably only see birds. You'll definitely hear them. There are owls that hoot from time to time! There are alligators and snakes, but ya gotta have a keen eye to spot them! Rent a kayak to really experience the best of this park. Or, bring your own! If you paddle downstream, just know that the paddle upstream can be a bit challenging at times. You can either shoot the dams or portage around them. Your choice! Bring your camera. It's a wonderful experience. Come check it out!!

    Nice for kayaking due to being lush and tropical. It’s a swampy and beautiful place. However, it’s best to have experience because downstream from the kayak launch the river makes many sharp turns and has natural obstacles that have to be navigated around.

    One of the best parks in Palm Beach County. Gravel biking trails, hiking trails, kayaking, and a host of other activities give fun for the whole family. Check out the farmstead with a working sawmill while you’re there. Plenty of wildlife to see, as well. You’ll see deer, heron, gators, and a dozen other species.

    This is an amazing park, I wish I would have known about this park sooner! We were able to rent a tandem kayak for 35$ for 2 hours. The scenery here is unreal. The cypress trees were massive and there are so many things to see in the water. This is a great place for an adventure!

    Riverbend Park is a wonderful place. They rent bicycles, and kayaks, or you can bring your horse. It's beautiful there. They have miles of riding trails, or hiking trails. They have a canoe launch. Lots of picnic areas and restrooms. Some of the trails are shaded which is nice over the summer. The park is very well taken care of. The people that work here are top-notch. I love to plein air.

    Nice place for a bike ride or a hike. Trails intersect and loop so it’s easy to get disoriented but it’s easy to get back to the base. Get there early if you want to avoid the crowd. This is a hub of network of trails. You can continue further north into John Dickinson State Park or west into Corbett wildlife area.

    Great time with the fam. We rented bicycles and rode the bike trails. You can rent the bikes for 2 hours at a time for around $30 each. We saw dear close up and birds. It's a great place to take your family. There are tons of trails to explore on foot or with bikes. Next time I'll take my own bike. You can also rent canoes. They have restrooms and picnic areas but no garbage cans. 🤔 It's a beautiful place to take pics of nature.

    Great place to walk! Very clean and well shaded. The park is maintained well. Areas are marked well. There are a lot of trails, picnic areas, and a canoe launch.

    Very nice park to take the kayaks to. Nice launch area, plenty of room, good water and very scenic. Lots of turtles and a few gators were seen. We launched, paddled to the first dam, watched people try the passage and paddled back up to the ramp. Nice easy trip. And IT'S FREE!!!

    This place is stunning! Recently came here for professional group photos and the scenery was gorgeous. Plenty of space for a lot of people with plenty of benches, picnic tables, and covered pavilions. Parking is available on the side of the road. Restrooms are accessible at the welcome center where there is additional parking.

    You guys This Place🤌🏽‼️💎I don't know where to start... come transport yourself into one of the best regional parks Fl has to offer. Upon arriving you've got the chickee style hut where bikes can be rented , kayaking along the Loxahatchee river, food truck with smoothies. Along the trails which are just beautiful wild fruits growing like oranges tangerines star fruit. Raccoons everywhere there's a lot of wild life out here. Old sawmill and Seminole battlefield grounds, a garden, farmstead. It's historic feel just brings you back in time surrounded by lush greenery walking through it is amazing but biking through it is a whole different vibe I can't recommend it enough. Saw archery being set up many activities are taking place here to join in on I was blown away. Definitely get more info on all they offer here because there's much going on. Absolutely stunning riverbend I cannot wait to return.💎

    This is an awesome spot of you want to get away without having to go too far. The trails are not too long but exploring can help it feel longer. You can rent bikes and kayaks here for a decent price or bring your own. The river around the area is an easy one to kayak if you’re new . Great for photo taking as well. You’ll definitely see wild life so have your cameras ready! They do have a picnic area further in as well as small garden. Lots to do here if you enjoy the outdoors!

  • 5/5 Jonathan R. 11 months ago on Google

    This place is amazing! Rented Bikes for 2 hours with my daughter. We saw a baby alligator, 3 baby raccoons, 3 close up deer, lots of birds. Friendly people. Natural landscape, great last day of our trip. Highly recommend.

  • 5/5 Leonaris B. 1 year ago on Google
    Perfect spot to do kayak. In the rainy season it is flooded and it is difficult on the way to return by the water current and I can’t barely see clear water. BUT in not rainy season ITS SO BEAUTIFUL. The water is clear at some points along the way and you can even take a dip. CAUTION of alligators.

  • 5/5 Stephen G Wright P. 6 months ago on Google
    Riverbend is a photographers dream location. The scenery is perfect for any occasion. There’s also tons of activities to do. You can cycle through the many trails or even canon down the river and see many of the local wildlife. Great family friendly area, I will keep going back for more photography sessions as well as for enjoying the great outdoors.

  • 5/5 Ashley R. 2 years ago on Google
    Beautiful park with many walking and biking trails as well as waterways for canoeing or kayaking. There there are options of shaded trails or full sun areas. Bountiful wildlife like deer, alligators, snakes, birds et cetera. Also set up like old sawmills.

  • 5/5 Radai C. 2 years ago on Google
    This part helped me reconnect with my Passion for the outdoors after living in South Florida for over 20 years.. Great historic place and I'm amazing for hiking, kayaking, or just paint Nikki with a family.

  • 5/5 eva c. 2 years ago on Google
    Meticulously maintained park with numerous walking trails, especially good for people who is not able to walk on uneven terrain or people who need shade. The few ponds therein are beautiful and create varying landscape and foster plenty of wildlife such as spoonbill and green heron. We went there 3 times in this trip. There is a facility that lends bicycle and canoe. It is no ordinary park, so five stars!

    Kayaking at this park is a great team building activity! We did We did tandem kayaks for 4 hours and the team was amazing and incredibly nice. We were a group of 11 people and they were very understanding with everyone when it came to all the different experience levels. The surroundings and stopping spots were beautiful. There are so many turtles and if you are lucky you’ll get to see the manatees. This is a great place for events or any kind of adventure!
