We will meet at Tolmie State Park at 5:30 p.m. near the picnic shelter. Park in the lower parking lot, if possible, for closest access. A Washington State Parks Discover Pass is required to park in the park.
Four Cedars Trail makes a loop through the park’s lush uplands and dips into a small ravine. Along the trail we see large cedars and firs, and cross a few boardwalks. It is a pleasant and easy hike on well-maintained trails. If families want to explore the park further, there are other short trails and a beautiful beach to enjoy the summer evening.
