Along the Brandywine Valley Scenic Byway, SR 52/SR 100, you'll go from busy downtown Wilmington to quiet small towns, and past the Brandywine Creek State Park on SR 100. Get a glimpse of extravagant country mansions and gardens built by wealthy Americans in the early 20th century. Scenic in every season, some of the roadway is tree-lined and has stone fences running along the side.
