Cherry Valley National Wildlife Refuge, National Wildlife Refuge along Kittatinny Ridge, Pennsylvania
The refuge spans 185 acres of diverse landscapes including wetlands, forests, and meadows, with Cherry Creek flowing through to the Delaware River.
Local conservation groups initiated land protection efforts in the 1990s, leading to the establishment of the refuge by Congress in 2008.
The refuge connects to the Appalachian Trail system and provides spaces for wildlife observation, photography, hunting, and environmental research.
Visitors can access designated trails throughout the refuge while maintaining distance from wildlife and following the no-pets policy.
The Kittatinny Ridge migration corridor attracts 20,000 hawks, eagles, and falcons each fall, with over 140 bird species recorded.
