Chester Springs Surrounds Posted


Chester Springs Villages and its 20 attractions, environmental organizations, and neighborhood partners have come together under a unifying message, proclaiming the area as Chester Springs Surrounds - Natural Charm. The effort included the publication of a guide to Chester Springs Surrounds and a portal to the area.

Chester Springs Surrounds encompasses the green space bounded by Pottstown to the north, Exton to the south, Phoenixville to the east, and Elverson to the west. Defining the area are French Creek and Pickering Creek, surrounded by small clusters of state parks, natural preserves, historical attractions, and family destinations. Chester Springs Surrounds is just a 15-minute drive from Valley Forge National Historic Park and 30 miles from downtown Philadelphia.

Much of the scenic beauty and lands that encompass Chester Springs Surrounds are under the protection and care of land preservationists, namely the French and Pickering Creeks Conservation Trust, Green Valleys Association and the Natural Land Trust. The project was made possible through a grant from the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, Department of Community and Economic Development.
