Galien River County Park is open daily, from dawn until dusk. There is no entry fee.
Features: Marsh Overlook Platform; Canopy Walkway; River Viewing and Fishing Platform; and the Marsh Boardwalk.
In 2001, the Berrien County Parks Commission acquired 86 acres in New Buffalo Township to establish the Galien River County Park. This undeveloped property included a mix of upland and wetland habitats along the Galien River. The wetland area is particularly significant in that it is a part of the larger "New Buffalo Marsh," a Great Lakes marsh that formed along the Galien River just upstream from the river's mouth at Lake Michigan.
