Tucked into the middle of Bainbridge Island, this extensive network of trails is one of the most popular for folks who live around here. And with over seven miles of winding and looping trails, there is plenty to choose from.

About a 40-minute drive (don't go near rush hour) to a beautiful wildlife reserve with several walking trails. Located at the head of Hood Canal, Theler Wetlands consists of more than 3 miles of accessible walking trails within 139 acres of protected salt marsh and estuary wetlands. If they’re open, you and your family can discover the displays and hands-on exhibits that teach more about the wetlands ecosystem.

Long mostly sandy beach with an old lighthouse. Behind the lighthouse follow the path along the beach to a steep set of stairs that go straight up the hill for a short hike. One of my favorite places for beach-walking. There's a nearby store for coffee or ice cream afterwards.

One of my favorite road trips to a great resort on the water. You can have lunch or dinner and walk around the grounds. Across the street is a short hike up a big hill with a great view of the Olympics from the top. After lunch, drive past Alderbrook to the Union store for some fun treats!
