Shippensburg Township Park lies just outside of Shippensburg on the north side of town. The township’s main park is divided into two sections by Fogelsonger Road, bound on the west by Cumberland Valley Rail Trail, and on the east by Britton Road.

The northern portion contains most of its sports, recreation, and event facilities, and is accessible by car from Britton Road with entrances at Hornbaker Drive (ball complex entrance) and Mowery Drive (main entrance). The park also serves as a trailhead access point for foot, bicycle, or horseback traffic at milepost 1 of the Cumberland Valley Rail Trail.

The southern portion of the park has its own entrance and parking area accessible from Britton Road, and houses the Multi-Purpose iFeld, Burd Run Nature Trail, and the SU Campus Farm, a university-affiliated sustainability project that supplies fresh produce to the campus and community.

Most of the park’s facilities are open to the public between dawn and 11:00 p.m., though a few require registration in advance.
