Lord Hill Park In Washington Is The Perfect Place To Get Lost In Nature
The best way to escape from reality and clear your mind is to spend time in nature, something many Washingtonians have been doing more of this year. But since we don’t always have the time to dedicate an entire day to getting lost in the mountains or wandering through our forests, it’s nice to know we have some local parks that have everything we need for a day of social distancing from the outside world. Lord Hill Regional Park is such a place, and it’s closer than you think.
But you'll feel like you're light years away from all things urban when you're here... and you'll love it.
The property sits on a ridge that runs parallel to the Snohomish River, and it's completely peaceful.
He raised horses, sheep, hogs, and dairy cows here for most of his life, and he had a fantastic home on the property. His home still remains on the park grounds.
The area is clearly well-maintained and very cleaned, and you can tell it is well-loved.
The trails range from short and easy to slightly more challenging. Form popular viewpoints like Devil’s Butte Lookout, you can see both the Olympic Mountains and the Cascades.
If you visit at the right time, you just might spot a family of beavers building a dam.
While the park can be a popular place on the weekends and during sunnier seasons, it's also very possible to get lost (on purpose) and escape the crowds.
Have you ever heard of this nature lover’s dream?
