State Game Lands Number 280, Conservation area in Berks County, United States
State Game Lands Number 280 spans 2,552 acres across three separate parcels in Bern, Penn, and Lower Heidelberg Townships of Berks County.
The Pennsylvania Game Commission established this land as part of a broader initiative to maintain wildlife populations and sustainable hunting practices in the state.
Local hunters gather at these grounds during specific seasons to participate in regulated deer, turkey, and small game hunting activities.
Visitors can access the lands through U.S. Route 222 and Pennsylvania Route 183, with entry points located approximately 5 miles southwest of Reading.
The elevation changes from 360 to 522 feet create distinct microclimates that support different wildlife communities within this single conservation area.
