This park is well- used by locals & a lovely place to wander around. There is a marvelous Peter Pan statue in bronze - apparently identical to the Hyde Park statue. A magnificent statue of a caribou can be seen - reproduced on our Canadian quarters...

Wonderful long trails. Bring your bread crumbs to feed the swans and your running shoes to go for a nice long run. Enjoy :)

I visited the park for the first time since 1972 for the Centennial celebrations and was mightily impressed by its beauty, family focus and recognition of Newfoundland history as evidenced by the beautiful statues commemorating the death of a little girl on the Florizel and the bravery of Newfoundland soldiers in the Great War.Judging by the number of people attending the celebrations, the citizens of St Johns cherish Bowring Park and long may it continue.

A lovely and large park close to the city. It has many paths, a river, pool, waterpark, playground, fields and many picnic areas. It is a good place for a stroll, to play catch and feed the ducks.

Bowring Park attracts locals 12 months of the year; people love walking the park and its trails during all of the seasons, especially when the weather is warm. There's a good hiking trail off the main park route- ask for directions to find it. For families, summer time is when the outdoor pool opens. Another perennial favourite. The park has been undergoing a refurbishment, and is also celebrating its centennial in 2014.
