Why go
Choose Discovery Park when the goal is landscape rather than a quick urban green space. The Loop Trail passes through forest, meadow and shrubland before opening to Puget Sound views, and West Point adds a lighthouse at the shoreline. Its former Fort Lawton grounds give the varied terrain a layer of history.
What to look for
- Discovery Park includes forest, meadow, bluffs and beaches.
- Discovery Park's Loop Trail links upland habitats and Puget Sound views.
- West Point Lighthouse stands at Discovery Park's western edge.
Useful to know
- Discovery Park's north-beach return climb is more demanding than the upland paths.
