Water Trail Survey
Do you love to paddle or float on the Brandywine?

The Brandywine Conservancy and the Chester County Planning Commission are conducting an online survey about the proposed Brandywine Water Trail and need your thoughts and ideas.

Water trails are recreational and educational corridors between specific locations that can be used for both single day and multiple day trips on and within waterways. They are comprised of access points, boat launches, day use sites, and -- in some cases -- overnight camping areas. They provide safe access to and information about waterways while also providing connections to our diverse history, ecology, geology, heritage and wildlife.
