About Tyler State Park

Tyler State Park sits about 33 miles from central Philadelphia in Bucks County. Its roads, trails, and facilities fit within an old farm and woodland landscape, and Neshaminy Creek winds through the grounds, splitting the land into several distinct sections. Visitors can hike, bike, fish, boat, picnic, watch wildlife, and enjoy winter recreation. Former farm buildings now house a community theater in a restored grain mill and an arts center with studios and workshops. The park also offers educational programs from September through May.
