Nestled on high ground between the Olympic & Cascade mountains. White Horse golf course offers sweeping views of Puget Sound & the mountains.

Liberty Bay’s calm waters and coastal charm make it the perfect place to paddle out. Rent a kayak or stand up paddleboard from the Olympic Outdoor Center.

Go at sunset for ultimate dreamy vibes. Then paddle up to the Brass Kraken for a beer.

Great small bakery with a great variety of delicious pastries.

To walk the entire loop, plan to spend at least 2 hours at the Reserve. Visiting Bloedel Reserve is specifically designed to be a quietly immersive experience in nature. The Bloedel Reserve has both natural and highly landscaped lakes, immaculate lawns, woods, a stone garden[1] (formerly the swimming pool where poet Theodore Roethke drowned in 1963), a moss garden, a rhododendron glen, and a reflection garden designed with the assistance of landscape architects Richard Haag, Thomas Church, Kazimir Wall, and Danielle Stern. The Bloedels' French Chateau-style home, including many original furnishings, is preserved as a visitor center.

The Rodeo Drive-In was established in 1949 and is the largest drive-in theater in the Pacific Northwest. Movie sound is broadcast to your car or portable FM radio.

Small brewery tasting room with lots of charm and amazing brews. It's off the main road but worth the hike up the hill.

Dear frozen yogurt: you are the celery of desserts. Be ice cream or nothing. Zero stars.

This 18-foot-tall public art installation is another of sculptor Thomas Dambo's trolls. The troll is free to visit.

The Poulsbo Wilderness Trail is a beautiful 1-mile, out-and-back trail just a 5-minute drive from downtown that meanders between big, gorgeous pines, across a footbridge, and along a stream. If you hadn’t just had a delicious Viking Cup at Sluys just 10 minutes before, you might think you were smack in the middle of the Olympic Peninsula’s wild forests!

Nestled in the northern foothills of the Olympic Mountains, Lake Crescent lies about 2 hours west of Poulsbo. The pristine waters of this deep, glacially carved lake make it an ideal destination for those in search of natural beauty.

You’re just a ferry ride away from Seattle. A wonderful, crowded market with many craft sellers, flowers, knick knacks, seafood, and eateries throughout the area.
