New Riverfront Attraction

Reconnect with the natural world at the new DuPont Environmental Education Center!

Located in the Russell W. Peterson Urban Wildlife Refuge in the southernmost portion of Wilmington's Riverfront overlooking the Christina River.

It provides panoramic views of the tidal marsh, which has been transformed into a thriving ecosystem where eagles soar and ospreys nest. The area currently supports more than 200 species of wildlife.

Outside, the Urban Wildlife Refuge trail system allows visitors access through 212 acres of marsh. After a visit to the Refuge, stop by either the casual Iron Hill Brewery or upscale Harry's Seafood Grill; both offering lunch and dinner service with water views from each restaurant..
