"A very relaxed setting that sits at the foothills of the tacony Palmyra bridge. There are various trails and interesting sites along the way. If you like birding and sight seeing this isnt a bad little spot. Deer, owls, eagles, hawks and beavers are a just a few of the birrds and animals you will see."
"Nice place to walk and get some mileages underneath your toes."
"I was apprehensive of going based on previous reviews. But I have to say I enjoyed it. It was relaxing and though the beach did have litter, the scenery is still lovely. The trails were litter free and clear with signs to keep you on track."
"I went to Palmyra Cove Nature Park on Sunday so the buildings were closed but the grounds were open to the public. My son and I were there a little over an hour (this wasn't a planned outing and we only had time to go a short distance), but everything that we did see was incredibly beautiful. I will definitely be going back there when I have a lot more time (and the proper shoes, lol) to go exploring the trails."
"A very beautiful park... We took the river trail.. we were able to walk less than a mile and the kids really enjoyed... It was cool and gave a great view of the Delaware river and phili skyline... We also went over the cove trail for almost a mile. The initial path was broad and well maintained.. however as we went inside the trail the path became narrow and at one point we had to keep the strollers and move ahead and there was spaceo only to walk... Cove trail is one way and we had to come back the same way we went... We saw few good spots giving great views of rivers and best for bird watching... Truly enjoyed.."
