Fragrance Viewpoint Hike

This is a short up and back hike that is just north of the Skagit County line in Larrabee  State Park.  Round trip is about 3 miles.

Take Chuckanut Drive, SR 11, north out of Burlington and follow it until you just cross the Skagit County line, park in the first parking area to the right.  This is also the parking area for a number of other trails in this area.  Discover Pass required.

Walk north on the Interurban Trail for 1/3 of a mile.  The trail on the right, after 1/3 mile,  is the one to the Viewpoint.  After about a mile and 8 ‘medium switchbacks,’ you come to a fork in the trail and a sign:  right to the view point and left for another 1.1 miles to Fragrance Lake.  The view point is really worth the effort!  Gaze to the west over Samish Bay to the San Juan Islands.

’til next time,
