Puget Sound and Islands > Seattle-Tacoma Area
lovely quiet trails!

We hiked this park a few months ago after finding it on WTA's fine trail finder app.  Today, it was just as fun...no one there on a cloudy Monday morning. We hiked the largest loop we could figure out.  It helps to have the park brochure which is available at the trail heads.  The junctions in the south part of the park are marked making it easy to navigate.  We headed North from the 'Cars' ( long since dumped vehicles with vegetation growing out of them) and did a loop of 2.5 miles.  Some ups and downs are good for the calves and heart.  We enjoyed the solitude and will definitely return.  Very quiet in the park.
