Our Park System

Perkasie has an extensive park system and an active Parks and Recreation Board that offers many activities throughout the Borough.

______________________________________________________________________________

Winter Trail Reminder: 

For Borough Park Trail Snow Information, please refer to Resolution #2008-34:

“Snow plowing of streets and roadways, park service drives, municipal parking lots, sidewalks on Borough-owned properties, and any emergency needs are to take priority over snow removal. However, removal of snow from the designated areas is to be a priority of plowing of snow from municipal bike paths.”

The Borough trails will be cleared when possible, but snow and ice covered areas may remain for an extended period of time after a storm. Surfaces may be slippery. Residents may still access the parks for winter recreation activities; however, they do so at their own risk.

  • Lenape Park is located on both sides of the East Branch Perkiomen Creek with a bikeway constructed along one side of the creek. Lenape Park attractions include a dog park, skate park, three Little League baseball fields, a softball field, sand volleyball court, ice skating rink, picnic areas and the twin bridges. Also located on the Constitution Avenue side of Lenape Park is the Borough owned wind turbine.

Bicycle & Walking Path System – Sellersville/ Perkasie/ East Rockhill

This bikeway attaches to a bikeway in Sellersville Borough, continues through Perkasie, along the creek and attaches to a bikeway in East Rockhill Township. The Bikeway from Main Street, Sellersville to the east side of Blooming Glen Road covers approximately 3.25 miles. For information on the length of the bikeway, please click here. A link to the bikeway is planned in Perkasie Borough that will follow Pleasant Spring Creek, cross Walnut Street at the south east end of the borough, continue through the Stonycrest development and end in Hilltown Township.
