10 Best Day Trips From Seattle

vagrantsoftheworld.com

There is no shortage of fun things to do and places to see in Seattle. The Space Needle, the Seattle Centre Monorail, the Museum of Pop Culture are just some of the top attractions in Seattle.

Destinations that make a wonderful weekend away but are also easily achievable as a day trip from Seattle. Micro breaks from the city to give you a change of scenery.

Mount Rainier National Park, Washington

Take the scenic Mount Rainier Gondola, choose from over 130 hiking trails, follow one of the driving tour routes, mountain bike riding, fishing, horseriding, and the list goes on.

Victoria, British Columbia

Famous for its vivid flower displays and abundant parkland, the city has one of the mildest climates in the Northwest and is renowned for its outdoor activities.

Olympic National Park, Washington

A natural slice of paradise, the park has some of the lushest flora and fauna in the region over several vastly different ecosystems.

Tacoma, Washington

Tacoma is somewhat of a surprise. Despite its industrial roots, Tacoma is very arts-centric thanks to its traditions of glass blowing.

Bellevue, Washington

The incredibly scenic city has nearly as much to offer as Seattle but with a high-end, small-town vibe you won’t find elsewhere in Washington State.

North Cascades National Park, Washington

The park is also home to an abundance of wildlife including grizzly bears, lynx, moose, gray wolves, and more than 200 bird species.
