Kardon Park (Downingtown)

A pleasant lakeside park in the middle of Downingtown that most people drive past without stopping. Easy, flat walking path around the water, good duck-feeding situation, and a relaxed vibe. Great complement to a Struble Trail walk — different enough to feel like a second destination.
