Discovery Park is easily one of my favorite places in Seattle. Located on the penninsula of Magnolia, looking at the view you’d think you were in the middle of nowhere rather than 15 minutes from downtown.
The park is 3 miles in circumference, a loop trail runs the entire park but there are many other trails that stem off it. A lighthouse is found at the bottom of the South Beach trail, while it is currently in the process of being restored, the hike down is well worth it. On a warm sunny day it’s not umcommon to see kite boarders out on the water and the panoramic view of the Olympic Mountains makes Discovery Park one of the most beautiful places to visit in all of Seattle.
