Delaware is home to several unique parks, trails, nature centers, and preserved wildlife areas. But – there’s only one spot where you’ll find beautiful trails, nature, wildlife AND a cajun restaurant. Of course, I can only be talking about St. Georges, Delaware. If you’ve never been, you’ve got to make a trip to this tiny waterside town.

The Chesapeake and Delaware Canal is an iconic body of water in Delaware that offers some stunning scenery.

The trail passes through preserved wetlands and wildlife areas, so you'll see plenty of migratory birds, deer, rabbits, marinelife and more.

Just as fascinating as the wildlife is the architecture you'll encounter! The train and cable bridges are beautiful in their own way.

Right across the road from the trailhead, you'll find the St. Georges County Store.
