Bird Walk at Welkinweir

In April, migrating birds and flowering plants bring an explosion of color to  Welkinweir, a 224-acre nature sanctuary in northern Chester County.  Join us as we search for birds in the wetlands, meadows, ponds, and woodlands at this special place, which is also home to the Green Valleys Watershed Association.

Masks are required to be worn by all participants.  Meet in the visitor parking lot west of the main entrance. Bring binoculars if you have them and dress for the weather. Paths are unpaved and uneven with one steep hill and will be wet and muddy in spots. Beginning birders and children (accompanied by an adult) are welcome and encouraged to join. This walk of 1-2 miles will last approximately 2-3 hours.  A portable restroom is on site.
