Top Answers To Washington Travel Questions
-
Geoff answered:Do not forget everything the Northwest has to offer: the San Juans or Whidbey Island (breathtaking - great B&B's), Anacortes (the home for whale watching and guided kayak trips - if you can't make the San Juan Islands), at the Space Needle - see the new Chihuly Center; Tacoma - lots to do and close-up of Mount Rainier; Yakima Valley (wine tasting); White Pass or Chinook Pass (high in Alp-like Mountains); Mount Rainier National Park. That's just the tip of the iceberg. The reading was accurate -- there's so much to do, just in Seattle. Kayaking? On Lake Washington. See the Sound Experience (near the Space Needle). Ride the Duck (fun), Tour the Puget Sound - ride a ferry. You just can't go wrong: we are lucky to spend a lifetime in this area.

Anonymous user asked:Anonymous user answered:Take a few days to escape the city and make a beeline for Olympic National Park, one of the country's most diverse landscapes. With so many options on tap, here are a couple of links from Away.com's sister site, GORP.com, to get you started: http://gorp.away.com/gorp/location/wa/ww_seattle.htm, http://gorp.away.com/gorp/resource/us_national_park/wa_olymp.htm. For something a little special, hike the Hoh Rain Forest Trail to the quietest spot in the Lower 48 (www.onesquareinch.org for details, including hike directions). Warning: it'll make it hard to return to the East Coast's din!
