PARK HIGHLIGHT
Bucks County is home to many parks and nature centers, which offer a wide variety of activities for visitors to enjoy. This spring, check out one of the county’s most unique geologic features, a field of boulders that ring like bells when struck with a hammer, in Ringing Rocks Park. You can also take advantage of Core Creek Park’s ball fields, dog park, and boat rentals, or head to Peace Valley Park to enjoy places to hike, bike, and fish around Lake Galena.
Visitors can also check out Bucks County’s extensive trails or the county’s two historic sites: the Stover-Myers Mill and the Erwin Stover House, which also features an exhibit about the history of the land’s first inhabitants, the Lenape people.
