We have always liked the nature center. Be sure to check the hours of operation before you go. Trails are fairly easy, some climbing and rocky terrain. Peaceful scenery.

One of the loveliest parks in the area. The Nature centre is a great place to bring your kids or family, and the trails are always nice to walk. Honestly one of the best maintained parks around.

No animals allowed. Great nature museum for kids to play and see things in, free admission. And great trails, very kid friendly area. Lots of animals on the trails, and lots of turtles in the streams

I enjoyed walking through this trails. Ive only been once and didn't cover much distsnce but there are a lot of different paths you can take. So everytime you go you can always choose different paths to get to different areas.

Questions & Answers

Is there a camp for kids during the day?

During the summer there are day camps. Check the York County website to find details. They require registration and they fill up quickly.

Are there any cabins on the grounds for rent?

No, I believe the park is open only during daylight hours. The trails and bridges are great and the nature center is really well put together. But it's not a place to camp for the night as far as I can tell.

Is there things for small children to do
