Brandywine Creek State Park

Formerly owned by the du Pont family, this 900 acre parcel of land became a state park in 1965. It is a mix of picturesque open meadows and wooded sections with a network of about 15 miles of trails throughout.

Canoeing and fishing in Brandywine Creek are popular activities in the park as are hiking and mountain biking the trails to the north of the creek. For more mountain biking, check out the Woodlawn Trustees trail network which has several connectors into the park and spans a large portion of the Brandywine Valley.
