Reviews
Lovely birding experience! A great variety including wood ducks with their baby, a blue heron, and common mergansers.
Nice space. Well maintained. The path is overrun by bikers at times.
Very pretty paved walking/biking trails near Egypt Rd, Audubon. A part of the Perkiomen trail system running along the River. This trail connects with the Valley Forge extension. There are restrooms, park ranger office, covered and not covered picnic areas and outdoor bbq grills. Great for bikers, walkers, families.
For facilities park in the main lot. Pass the first commuter lot and continue to the dead end where main entrance is located on your left.
A nice park and trail system that connects to a larger network. Plenty of easily accessible parking. Clean public restrooms as part of a pavilion area. Outdoor grills with areas for informal sports. Paved trails suitable for walking, running, dogs and biking. Good trail markers although if you go far you may need to orient via your mobile phone. Not too much shade from trees. Good access to the river with allowable fishing.
An excellent park that feels like it is from a different era. Has an enormous picnic area with amenities that are very rare in modern parks: wooden picnic tables, charcoal grills, and stone fireplaces that you can build fires in to roast hot dogs and marshmallows. Also connects to a beautiful riverside trail that goes on for miles in both directions.
