About
Discovery Park is Seattle’s largest green space with forests, meadows, and coastal bluff views over Puget Sound.
Why it’s great
Great exposure to different ecosystems in one walk. Lush forest, tide pools, wildflowers, a lighthouse, mountain views. This place is the total package.
Low commitment & flexible loops. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve come here for “a short walk” and end up having such a good time that I end up walking 4+ miles.
Good to know
Sequoia Social Club hikes this trail on the third Sunday of every month. Join us!
