Very flat area

This refuge was set up as early as 1933 to protect birds that migrate along the Atlantic Flyway migration highway. The area covers over 28,000 acres (11,330 ha) of important habitats: wetlands, fields and forests. The Blackwater River flows through the park. It's named after its tea-like color. The water darkens as it drains through peat soil and picks up tannins.

This park celebrates Harriet Tubman, an abolitionist and Underground Railroad activist. You can learn about her life and work at a museum and enjoy the nature of the Blackwater National Wildlife Refuge nearby afterward. The park is open from 10am until 4pm Tuesday until Sunday.

Taylors Island is made up of wonderful untouched tidal marches, forests and fields. You can spot lots of wildlife here such as bald eagles, osprey, elk, muskrats and otters.

I recommend, if you are passing through, to plan a visit to the visitor centre.

Here, since 1933, the area has been protected as a refuge for migratory birds. It is now a beautiful place to cycle.

Beautiful natural area on the eastern shore.
