Lake Lenape Waterfalls
The spillway pours over a low WPA-built dam into the East Branch of the Perkiomen Creek, the natural halfway point on the loop that circles this 122-acre park straddling Sellersville and Perkasie. Twin suspension bridges from the Roebling company (the Brooklyn Bridge people) cross the water just upstream, and the lake behind the dam was dedicated in September 1937.

Lenape Park
A skinny linear park that threads between Ferry and Bridge streets along an old quarry cut, with a gazebo, a small water feature, and enough shade to eat lunch out of the sun. Locals call it the Quarry; it's easy to walk right past by the railroad tracks, and it's stood in for more than a few tiny weddings since the borough built it in 2008.
Lake Lenape Park
Bucks County's biggest municipal park at 122 acres, dreamed up by Sellersville's David Cressman and built by the WPA in the 1930s, with twin Roebling suspension bridges strung over the East Branch Perkiomen. Come for the 18-hole disc golf course, the 3-plus-mile creek path, or the ice rink once the pond freezes over.
National Shrine of Our Lady of Czestochowa
A Polish-American Catholic shrine founded in 1955 on Beacon Hill, the highest elevation in Bucks County. Sunday Mass runs in Polish at 12:30, and the grounds include a cafeteria, Polish deli, and religious-goods store.
