Nature Soothes the Stressed Soul
New Hope, Pennsylvania - Restore your spirits
and relax with a peaceful walk through Bowman’s Hill
Wildflower Preserve. Located in Bucks County just minutes
from the bustling shops and restaurants of New Hope, the Preserve
offers a tranquil contrast, where you will be immediately
transported into a natural experience. Bring family, friends
or come on your own.
The Preserve’s 100-acre site offers trails through
woods, meadows, along Pidcock Creek and a pond. In this naturalistic
setting, nearly 1000 species of Pennsylvania native plants
thrive. The Preserve is the premier destination for seeing
and learning about these plants. The site also is a prime
location for bird-watching and photography.
In the Visitor Center, pick up free trail maps, watch birds
from the comfort of indoors, enjoy wildflower videos and exhibits,
get free information about gardening with native plants, and
peruse books in our library. The Visitor Center also is home
to the Platt Museum of mounted birds, nests and eggs, and
the Twinleaf Shop, where nature-themed books and t-shirts
can be purchased.
