Where to walk in Newark after dark outside?
Hi all,
I love to walk in the Glasgow park, but it gets dark at 5 now and it's not lit up. Any ideas where I can walk outside after dark? The only think I can think of is to call local schools and ask if they have tracks that are lit up in the evenings and not in use by students...  |

Thats your best bet, and what I do when I want to walk.
We have a track behind an old middle school turned community center.
Its active and well lit in the evenings, residents bring there dogs for walks as well.

all county/state parks close at sunset so finding a park to walk at will not be a viable option
perhaps one of the high schools? Cavalier and Glasgow are the two closest to the park and may be lit up
Also, the UDel mall might be a place to look at - there isn't a track but it will be populated and fairly well lit

UD mall is a good idea, but the parking is a pain (relatively speaking.
The James F Hall trail is well-lit and apparently very nice - I'm going to try it next week:
