Park description

Buckhorn Island State Park is primarily an exhibit of Niagara River wetlands, and is managed as a preserve. As such, the park offers space for largely passive recreational uses, such as biking, cross-country skiing, fishing, hiking, and a nature trail. The park's wetlands serve as an overwintering location for 19 species of gulls, nearly half of the world's 45 species.
