Four Cedars Trail @ Tolmie State Park
Hiking area
πŸ‘πŸ‘ I liked the up and down terrain of the trail and the education it provides about trees along the way. I just finished the trail as the tide was coming in and the sun was setting . I recommend wearing good shoes for hiking this trail.

Deschutes Falls Park

πŸ‘πŸ‘ Today was "get out and explore". I wanted to go somewhere we hadn't been before. What a fabulous little tucked in location. The path is mostly rock covered until you get further down and then parts of it are beauty bark or a normal dirt trail. It is what I consider stroller or wheelchair friendly fo...

πŸ‘πŸ‘ There's so much to learn about all the different animals. You can learn so much about the sea creatures and birds. They even have binoculars and a telescope to look at the far away animals on the beach.

Darlin Creek Preserve
Nature preserve
πŸ‘πŸ‘ 2 main trail options, 1 mile and 2 mile. The first loop takes you around 1 side of a small scenic pond/small lake. You can find blackberries here in july. I haven't tried the 2 mile loop yet. There is not much seating for any rest stops. There is some incline but not terrible. If someone in a wheelc...

Monarch Sculpture Park and Art Center
Art center
πŸ‘πŸ‘ Great sculpture park to walk through, with multiple easy ways to drive or bike to get to it. Strollers can go on the path with some maneuvering, but not ADA accessible through the whole park. No public bathrooms, but there is a port a potty on the Chehalis Western Trail. I recommend bringing your ow...

πŸ‘πŸ‘ Very nice and well-kept park with fantastic playground design. Multiple walking paths and even a smaller baseball field with a backstop. Awesome design on the playground even includes a hotwheel track on one of the toys. So next time your full terror-mode, demanding, and angry toddler insist on taki...

Chehalis Western Trail
Biking trail
πŸ‘ Excellent for cycling, might be alright for running, probably not ideal for walking. Steer well clear early in the morning and late in the evening. Definitely sketchy people and lots of homeless encampments just off the trail. You often can't see them, but they're there.

😠 Terrible service lake was cool but the manager totally humiliated us in front of everyone. He accused us of things we didn’t do and he would not give us his bosses name.

πŸ‘πŸ‘ In the last few days we've walked most of the trails at least once, since we are anchored right off the beach (it's been rainy but gorgeous). The whole park is beautifully maintained, with nice trails that have steps in the steep sections. The walking is fairly easy throughout. The foliage is dense...

πŸ‘πŸ‘ This is a very good location to park and ride. Accessibility to trail head less than 100 ft away. The parking lot accommodates trucks with trailers. There is definitely enough parking space for a 20 vehicles with trailers. The restrooms were clean. No running water but not too shabby. The trail s...
