For almost 70 years, Delawareans have been flocking to Trap Pond State Park in the summertime. This beautifully preserved wetland is the northernmost bald cypress ecosystem in the country, and the unusual trees, forest wildlife, and aquatic life combine to create a unique environment that’s a treasure to discover. To see the pond in a new and exciting way, take a tour on the Trap Pond Pontoon Boat.

Trap Pond is a beautiful part of Delaware's park system, and everyone should make it a point to explore it at least once in their lives.
