There's a place called TRANQUILITY and it's Ferndell. The beautiful nature walk through the trees , creeks, and sounds of light splashing is one of the most incredible moments of my life. It was nice to put the phone away and just bask in a serene environment with an opportunity to reflect. The lower part of Ferndell is the perfect path for beginners, nature enthusiasts or just to get out in the open. I love that there's a playground so all the kids could leave me be (LOL). I'm also a fan of the accessible entrances from the street, as it makes it easier to locate your car. My only criticism is that this trail needs ACTUAL bathrooms, not outhouses. The outhouses looked absolutely horrible. I recommend using the restroom before coming here! Otherwise, this place is beautiful and I love it.
Note: if you're a pro hiker or super athletic and walk on a regular basis, I recommend going to the upper part of the trail which is not pictured and is close to the observatory.
