Auburn Valley State Park — Attraction in Kennett Township

Everyone had a great time even with the high humidity! Thanks Teresa for introducing this exciting activity to add whenever we are out on...

I participated in one of the bike tours of the park which are held once a month on a Friday afternoon. The tour guide was very knowledgeable about the local history, plants, birds, etc. Each tour is different, on the one I attended I learned a lot about historical bridges at the park which was very interesting. The bike ride is not long or steep, and the pace is not fast so anyone can stay on par with the guide. I definitely recommend the bike tour to everyone. You’ll like a lot about loxal history while getting...
