Out & About: Favorite Parks Series Archive
Local parks for your family to explore...
To help you discover a new local park or two, Dana and I are have shared some of our favorites this past summer. We decided to compile it all into one article for you, just in case you missed one. Enjoy!
Out & About : Favorite Local Parks
Local Farmers Markets - One of the many great things about living in the Snoqualmie Valley is the abundance of farmers markets that are available throughout the summer months. We've compiled a list of six within driving distance. Discover the family-friendly beauty of the farmers market!
Letterboxing - It's an excuse to take a walk ... with a big ol' twist of adventure. It's part treasure hunt, part stamp collecting, and a whole lot of fun!
Swamp Monster Trail - What I would classify as the one of the best kid-friendly hikes in our area because it's easy and entertaining!
Local Spray Park - There's no shortage of good parks in our area. But if you're looking for a fantastic park, in an amazing setting, with swings, a huge sandpit, and a cool {interactive} water feature, you're in luck because I am about to reveal a well-kept secret.
Pretzel Tree Trail - Hiking. While reading. In search of a tree named after a snack. Pretzel Tree Trail is a great family-friendly LOCAL hike!
Jumping Off Logs - Luke Talbott, local dad and owner of Compass Outdoor Adventures, helps you exploring ways to raise confident kids! And this guy knows what he's talking about!
Geocaching - Karie Downing, Lead Instructor at Compass Outdoor Adventure tells about a modern day, high-tech treasure hunt that has been fascinating kids and adults for over a decade. With over 1.6 million geocaches placed all over the globe, it's easy to drive, hike, bike or even walk to a cache.
