The Port Jervis Recreation department maintains thirteen parks and squares.  The city's largest parks are Elks-Brox Park and Riverside Park.  Elks-Brox Park, which includes Skyline Drive, the Elks-Brox Campground and the overlook at Point Peter, backs up to the much larger Port Jervis Watershed Park and Recreation Area, which together include more than sixty miles of hiking and biking trails.  Riverside Park is home to the Riverside Disc Golf Course, the Port Jervis Pump Track, trails, playground equipment, basketball courts, and other facilities.  Riverside Park is also home to a summer concert series, as well as movies in the park.  The smaller Farnum Park at the end of Ulster Place is also home to a summer concert series and a playground and a basketball court.  Basketball Courts can also be found at Church Street Park and West End Beach.  West End Beach is a park along the Delaware River that has a bathing beach in the summer, a boat launch, volleyball and basketball and also serves as the city's sledding hill in the winter.  Playground equipment is also located at Barkley Street Park (Tri-States) and John Glenn Park on Cahoonzie Street.
