Stopping by Whatcom Falls Park

…a stress-relieving environment

I live in a city that has one park, two walking trail areas, and one green rectangle in the middle of town with no benches or other park features. So, I was overwhelmed when in September, I visited just one of the gorgeous parks in Bellingham, Washington.

Whatcom Falls Park has over 241 acres alone to explore. Google is full of maps and other information about this beautiful area. I just wanted to share some of my own photos.

Every trail bend has a great view. There’s no way to see it all, and go down every trail in a month. Maybe a year, if someone visited daily.
