Embrace the crisp autumn air and get ready for an evening of adventure and discovery as you unleash your inner naturalist with IslandWood and King County on the Brightwater Trails! Join us for a captivating fall journey of exploration and learning, discovering the plants and animals that thrive in this remarkable habitat as the season transforms. With 1.5 miles of scenic walking, including off-trail exploration, you can create lasting memories with friends, family, or by yourself amidst the beauty of fall.
Know before you go:
Be prepared for a 90 minute walk, with some optional detours off the trail. Our main trails accommodate strollers and wheelchairs.
Please wear sturdy walking shoes, a rain jacket, and binoculars/field guides if desired.
IslandWood acknowledges that the land on which we gather is within the ancestral territory of the suqʷabš “People of Clear Salt Water” (Suquamish People). Expert fisherman, canoe builders and basket weavers, the suqʷabš live in harmony with the lands and waterways along Washington’s Central Salish Sea as they have for thousands of years. Here, the suqʷabš live and protect the land and waters of their ancestors for future generations as promised by the Point Elliot Treaty of 1855. While the majority of our work takes place on Suquamish and Duwamish (dxʷdɐwʔabʃ) land, we also conduct programs on the land of the Snohomish (sduhúbʃ), Puyallup (spuyaləpabš), Muckleshoot (buklshuhls), Skokomish (sqoqc’bes), and S’Klallam (nəxʷsƛ̕ay̕əm) peoples.
