Washingtonians are always up for a new adventure and the Evergreen State never disappoints. Whether you’re in search of a coastal getaway or the perfect burger place, Washington has a lot to offer. Sometimes the best hidden gems aren’t far off the beaten path but feel miles away from the daily grind. Such is the case with the Coal Creek Falls Trail in Cougar Mountain Regional Wildland Park. Slip away for a day trip adventure in Washington that will immerse you in nature and refresh the soul.
Generally considered an easy to moderate hike, the Coal Creek Falls Trail is a 2.7-mile family-friendly loop.
We can't think of a better way to top off the day than a trip to Paisley Parlour. This tea room and gift shop is tucked in Issaquah's Gilman Village, just a short drive from Coal Creek Falls.
Plan ahead and book a reservation for afternoon tea.
Tea is available any time of day, but if you're in the mood for a real treat, we recommend Paisley Parlour's exquisite afternoon tea service. Afternoon tea is by reservation only and includes a pot of hot tea, assorted tea sandwiches, scones, and fruit.
Ready for a delightful day trip in Washington? Head to Coal Creek Falls Trail for a walk through nature that the whole family will enjoy. Then, relax and unwind with a pot of hot tea and delicious treats. Book your reservation for afternoon tea on the Paisley Parlour website. Follow them on their Paisley Parlour Facebook page for updates and events.
