Rannels-Kettle Run Nature Preserve
Nestled in northern Lancaster County’s Elizabeth Township, Rannels Kettle Run Nature Preserve is a haven for bird lovers. The 90-acre property features warblers, scarlet tanagers, great horned owls, great blue herons, woodpeckers and wood and water thrushes.
Rannels Kettle Run Nature Preserve also is a favorite site of wildflower enthusiasts. By mid-May, 40 or more wildflowers, like lady slippers, May apples and lobelia, already are in bloom.
The preserve’s terrain varies, from flat to hilly, and the ground can be soft and moist in places where there are seepages from Kettle Run.
Hunting and fishing are permitted in season.
Restrictions: No bikes, alcohol, camping or fires. Pets must be leashed.
