Discovering Seattle Parks | Author Event at Fjällräven

Mountaineers Books guidebook author Linnea Westerlind has researched and visited every single one of Seattle’s more than 400 public parks, and now she shares the most fun and intriguing options in Discovering Seattle Parks, a guide like no other. With this book in hand, residents and visitors alike will find just the right bit of green space for a break from the bustle of city life.

Organized by neighborhood, this playful guidebook will keep families, walkers, dog owners, and kids of all ages busy year-round with everything from pocket parks, known only to locals, to popular destinations, such as sprawling 350-acre Magnuson Park with sports fields, basketball courts, fascinating sculptures, a waterfront off-leash dog area, and miles of trails. Whether you’re looking for a sparkling city view or a spot for a picnic or birthday party, there’s the perfect park here for you.

Linnea has been an enthusiastic hiker, explorer, and traveler all her life. She writes articles on parks and urban adventures for ParentMap.com. Linnea lives in Seattle with her three boys and loves to share her love of urban parks with others. Visit Linnea's website.
