One of the Best Wildlife Attractions in PA!

Covering 1,200 acres of wetlands and trails, the John Heinz Wildlife Refuge at Tinicum is a great Pennsylvania attraction for the whole family!  You will marvel at the migratory birds, turtles, groundhogs, opossums, foxes, raccoons, muskrats, and deer that roam the area.  This refuge is one of the few attractions in PA where you can find such endangered creatures as the red-bellied turtle and coastal leopard frog.  The long wooden bridge serves as an ideal spot to take aerial photographs of the wildlife.  Avid bird-watchers have photographed over 300 species within the refuge.  Explore the large assortment of hiking and biking trails.  Take a fishing or canoe trip through Darby Creek.  There's even a special play area for your kids.  The John Heinz Wildlife Refuge is a nature lover's dream!
