Cape Henlopen State Park is exquisitely beautiful and has a variety of different habitats, including the beach and shore, the dunes, mature forests, bogs, and salt marshes. White-tailed deer roam the woodlands, northern bobwhite abounds on the dunes and in the forests, and seabirds and shorebirds are abundant. This hike weaves around a mile-long tidal pond and ends at the ocean, offering arm’s-length views of more than a dozen species of shorebirds.
