2025 Snohomish County Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in April)

It snowed in February when I went there! The entrance was closed in advance, so you have to walk an extra kilometer! It took us a total of 4 hours to go there and back, but I think if you go to Seattle, you must go! Because the photos turned out so beautiful! The scenery along the way is also very beautiful! However, I suggest that you bring enough food and water when you go, and it will be more convenient to wear snowshoes when you go in winter! When entering a snow cave, you must also check the weather conditions of the day, otherwise you may easily encounter an avalanche!

#manchestertrip Stevenson Square in the Northern Quarter is like an ever-evolving outdoor art gallery. The walls, shutters, and even utility boxes here are covered in incredible street art—some political, some poetic, and others just bold and beautiful. Local and international artists regularly refresh the murals, so every visit feels different. What makes this spot special is how organically the art blends with the area’s gritty, creative atmosphere. It’s a great place to explore with a coffee in hand or camera ready. Look closely, and you’ll find hidden messages, clever humor, and serious talent on every corner. For street art lovers, this is a goldmine—and it’s totally free.

#onthemove If you’re looking for a hiking adventure that combines jaw-dropping views with a solid workout, look no further than Washington’s lookout towers. These towers are perched on top of mountains, giving you 360-degree views of forests, lakes, and mountains, plus the satisfaction of saying, “I hiked to the top, and yes, I am now an expert in trail snacks.” Here’s your humorous guide to hiking these iconic spots. 1. Mount Pilchuck Lookout Mount Pilchuck’s trail is a classic Pacific Northwest challenge. At 5.4 miles round-trip, it’s the perfect balance between “I might die” and “I’m a mountain goat.” Expect a steep climb, but don’t worry—the payoff is a tower that’ll make you feel like a king or queen overlooking their kingdom. And hey, those views of Mount Rainier and Puget Sound will make you forget you’re covered in sweat and dirt. (Okay, maybe not forget—but you’ll feel way cooler about it). 2. Artist Point Lookout If the thought of climbing a mountain feels a bit intense, head to Artist Point Lookout for a gentler hike (just under 2 miles, no biggie). The trail is perfect for the kind of person who wants the glory of a summit without the “should I quit?” thoughts. Here, you’ll get Insta-worthy views of Mount Baker and Mount Shuksan. Bonus points if you can snap a photo before you’re photobombed by a very chill marmot. 3. Mount Rainier Fire Lookout For the hardcore hiker, Mount Rainier Fire Lookout awaits. At 6 miles round-trip, it’s a workout for your legs, lungs, and ego. But the views are worth it—think Mount Rainier standing tall and glorious. Pro tip: Pack a snack and pretend you’re on a survival reality show. You’ll earn your bragging rights when you make it to the top, where the lookout tower is your reward (and also a very scenic place to collapse and eat your trail mix). So grab your hiking boots, your sense of humor, and a good snack—because these lookout towers are ready for you, and you’re totally ready for them!

#northamericatrip Washington State is home to some of the most stunning hiking trails in the Pacific Northwest, and hiking to the lookout towers scattered across the state is one of the best ways to take in its incredible scenery. These historic towers, often perched on mountaintops, offer panoramic views of lush forests, sparkling lakes, and rugged mountain peaks. Here’s a guide to a few of the most rewarding hikes to lookout towers in Washington. 1. Mount Pilchuck Lookout Located in the North Cascades, the Mount Pilchuck Lookout trail is a popular, moderate hike with a rewarding summit. The trail is about 5.4 miles round-trip with a steady climb that’ll leave your legs burning but the views well worth it. At the top, the restored lookout tower offers a 360-degree view of the surrounding mountains, including Mount Rainier and the Puget Sound. It’s a perfect spot for a picnic and some well-deserved rest. 2. Artist Point Lookout If you’re after a less strenuous hike but still want stunning vistas, head to Artist Point Lookout near Mount Baker. This relatively short hike (just under 2 miles round-trip) takes you to a lookout point where you’ll be treated to breathtaking views of Mount Shuksan and Mount Baker. The trail is accessible from late summer through fall, with incredible wildflower displays in late summer and alpine snow in the early fall. 3. Fire Lookout at Mount Rainier For a more challenging adventure, hike the Mount Rainier Fire Lookout trail. At around 6 miles round-trip, this hike offers panoramic views of the iconic Mount Rainier, along with surrounding forests and valleys. The tower itself is a historic gem and a rewarding place to soak in the rugged beauty of this towering peak. Hiking to these lookout towers in Washington is the perfect way to combine outdoor adventure with the region’s jaw-dropping views. Pack your gear, lace up your boots, and get ready for some unforgettable sights!

The first day of big shopping for Americans is the fourth Friday of November each year, when American stores will launch a large number of discounts and promotions to carry out the last large-scale promotion at the end of the year. Because American stores generally record deficits in red and profits in black, and the crazy shopping on the Friday after Thanksgiving greatly increases the profits of the stores, it is therefore called Black Friday by the merchants. Outlets are direct sales stores where best-selling brands in the United States are concentrated, and there are chain stores in many states in the United States. Outlets are known as a shopper's paradise. The day after Thanksgiving, also known as 'Black Friday', is generally considered to mark the official start of the Christmas shopping season. The popularity of outlets in the United States has exceeded our imagination. With world-renowned brands, unimaginable low prices, and a comfortable shopping atmosphere, it attracts a constant stream of visitors to shop at the outlets, and it just can't stop. 1, New York Woodbury Common Premium Outlets 2, Los Angeles Palm Springs Desert Hills Premium Outlets 3, Los Angeles Camarillo Premium Outlets 4, Los Angeles Ten Doors Ontario Mills 5, Las Vegas Premium Outlets 6, Seattle Premium Outlets 7, Pennsylvania Franklin Mills 8, Philadelphia Premium Outlets 9, Washington Leesburg Corner Premium Outlets 10, Chicago Fashion Outlets 11, Miami Sawgrass Mills 12, San Francisco Livermore Premium Outlets Save these addresses!!

🌲 Day 1: A cute cabin stay in Skykomish (2.5 hour drive from Seattle). We stayed at @stay.pnw and enjoyed it very much 🌲 Day 2: Mount McCausland trail: 7 miles, 1,758 ft elevation gain and takes about 4 hours. Please be aware that the trail is unmarked and there are very few people - we were completely alone at the top 🌲 Day 3: Colchuck lake in Leavenworth area. This trail is no joke - it made it to #2 on my personal list of the hardest trails. It’s about 9 miles round trip and 2,326 ft elevation gain 🌲 Day 4: Leavenworth is a super cute Bavarian town, I wish we had more time to spend there 🌲 Day 5: Mount Rainier NP and Tolmie Peak trail - absolutely stunning view at the top, especially at sunset. The trail is well maintained, there are a lot of people so it’s totally fine to watch the sunset at the top and come down in the dark. It’s only 1,541 ft elevation gain and marked as moderate
