Lorimer Park, Public park in Abington Township, United States.
Lorimer Park spans across 230 acres of natural landscape, featuring walking trails, picnic areas, and playgrounds along the Pennypack Creek.
The park was established in 1938 through a bequest from George Horace Lorimer, the former editor-in-chief of The Saturday Evening Post magazine.
Throughout the year, the park hosts educational programs and community gatherings that connect residents with nature and local environmental initiatives.
Visitors can access the park daily from 7 AM until sunset, with designated parking areas available near the main entrance points.
The park borders Fox Chase Farm, one of only two remaining active farms within Philadelphia County, creating a connection between urban and rural spaces.
