Nockamixon State Park
5,286 acres wrapped around the 1,450-acre Lake Nockamixon, a short drive up Route 313 from Perkasie, with boating, a swimming pool, and disc golf. Open sunrise to sunset every day of the year; the lake is a rest stop for migrating waterfowl if you'd rather bring binoculars than a boat.

Marsh Creek State Park
1,784 acres wrapped around the 535-acre Marsh Creek Lake, just north of the borough with a Downingtown address. Sailing and fishing on the water, a seasonal pool, and the horse stable and most trails on the west side at 800 North Reeds Road.
Stateline Woods Preserve
86 acres and four miles of trails through fields and woodlands, home to a 300-year-old oak, saved from a housing development when neighbors and the Land Conservancy bought the land outright. Open dawn to dusk with leashed dogs welcome; mountain bikes and horses (ride-in only) too.
Struble Trail
A paved 2.6 miles along the East Branch of the Brandywine, from Norwood Road at Kardon Park up to Dorlan Mill Road, named for county commissioner Robert Struble. The stretch between Dorlan Mill and Dowlin Forge Roads is a special-regulation artificial-lure trout area, so expect fly rods in the shallows.
