Get Back to Nature Near Your Apartments in Puyallup

No matter who you are or what you do, theres always a need to get away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life, and immerse yourself in the natural world. Whether its to gain inspiration, to lay back and relax, or to exercise your stress away, the Five Mile Drive and Trails inside Point Defiance Park is the perfect getaway from the city. And its not too far from our apartments in Puyallup, WA! Trust me, the name doesnt do it any justice; its true that its a five mile drive, but its five miles of beautiful old growth Douglas fir, of cedar, of quiet views of Puget Sound, and of interaction with a variety of wildlife animals. Oh, speaking of, heres a secret just between you and me - when you get to mile 4, look over the fence and youll find yourself a little surprise, lets just say there are seals involved, so youll have to do it. The Five Mile Drive and Trails is a gem thats open year-round from sunrise to sundown - enjoy the fall foliage and also check out what it looks like when the entire park is covered in beautiful, fresh snow. For those who prefer biking and walking in calm silence, the park has reserved Saturday and Sunday mornings and early afternoons just for you; it is closed to vehicle traffic so you can enjoy yourself without worrying about dodging cars! If hiking is your thing, youll love hiking along our steep cliffs and listening to the unified sounds of wild animals and the animals from the zoo right next door. If youd rather be on water, fishing and kayaking will be available to you. The park is also a great venue for picnics, reunions, weddings and more. So remember, no matter who you are or what you do, theres always something for you at Point Defiance Park!
