It’s time to
embrace the great outdoors.
And at the
Silver Lake Nature Center, the possibilities for exploration are endless. The
Bristol-based center encompasses 235 acres of woodlands, lakes, marshes and
meadows, including 4.5 miles of hiking trails. It is open year round, allowing
nature enthusiasts a glimpse into beautiful Bucks County every day from dawn to
dusk.
The Silver Lake
Nature Center provides both preservation and education through its extensive
programs and projects. Currently, there are 43 Pennsylvania Species of Special
Concern being preserved on the property, ranging from a Magnolia Tripetala, an
umbrella tree that is threatened and very rare in this state to the Potamogeton
Pulcher, a heartleaf pondweed that is currently classified as endangered in
Pennsylvania. Most of the trees and grasses within the Silver Lake Nature
Center are native to the land.
