This is a small preserve right off of route 252 in Media. It has an old stone farmhouse that was built in 1806. Natural Lands built an addition onto the farmhouse and use it as their headquarters. The property also has a frame bank barn and a springhouse. Most of the property is open wild grassland. I saw several Eastern Meadowlark take flight on the mowed grass trail on the eastern edge of Hilda's Meadow. In addition to the numerous birds you can see in the meadow there are many other birds by Crum Creek and in the wetland behind the Office. As for deer, I had not even parked before I saw three deer and saw a total of 11 during my time in the Preserve.
Area to improve: The Preserve should increase its trail signs. Some trails are unmarked but clearly within the Preserve and at others it is unclear if they are withing the Preserve, private property or part of the Greenbank Farm Park.
Unfortunately this park also has a dog owners who just dumped their dog poop filled bag right on the trail.
Great local park. Can spend hours looking around
Lovely small nature preserve with a little bit of everything: rolling hills, pasture, woodlands, creekside trail, and a horse farm next door. NLT is headquartered on the premises in a converted farmhouse.
Peaceful space. Gorgeous meadows. You can see deer flocking about. My only complaint is during the summer there is a strong sulphur odor that is sometimes present at the start of the trail.
Views over the reservoir from the top point in the Preserve or walk along Crum creek in the valley. This smaller Natural Lands Trust preserve has great views. See it all in an hour or so.
Hildacy Preserve is virtually all that remains of a 300-acre land grant from William Penn to a local tanner and his family. ... P 610-353-5587 info@natlands.org. Follow
