Beautiful park... Quiet. There is a bird viewing 'house' where you sit on benches and you get to watch the birds and nature. There weren't many people there I don't know why maybe because the environmental center was closed. However you can visit the park as long as the gates are open. There are lots of trails and it's just a beautiful place. Please don't litter,
Have a great time!
This was a most interesting and enjoyable event focused on the process of extracting sap from maple trees and making maple syrup.
The Pennypack Environmental Center is a great place to learn about nature and what the surrounding areas in Philadelphia have to offer. It’s a great resource for those interested in learning. There are also exhibits and events. Good for all ages. An enjoyable experience.
I attended the Full Moon Nature Walk tonight. This was my first time at the Pennypack Environmental Center, and I was really impressed with the facility and the event! Lots of local environmental info, cool educational exhibits, very knowledgeable guide, and absolutely lovely nature preserve - all within Philadelphia city limits. Highly recommend for the beautiful nature experience and learning opportunity :D
