Seattle Adventure Vacation

Seattleites are active, sporty, outdoor adventure junkies; if you love the outdoors, Seattle is the place to be. The Emerald City is surrounded by lakes, sprinkled with parks and green spaces, and flanked by majestic mountains. In the winter, head to the Cascades for fresh powder skiing or snowboarding, or to the peaceful wooded trails in the Olympics for snowshoeing. In the summer, there’s no better place to be than swimming in Lake Washington; head to the docks at Madison Beach Park or Madrona Park. Other popular Seattle activities include sea kayaking out of Lake Union and hiking on urban trails, such as those at the Arboretum.
