State Parks
Everyone needs the occasional lazy day on a lake. For folks in the Puget Sound area or communities near Mount Rainier, Nolte State Park fits the bill.
Located 10 minutes from Enumclaw and a half hour from Auburn and Federal Way, this charming day-use park sits on placid, tree-ringed Deep Lake. The lake entices swimmers, paddlers and anglers, and a mile-long path around the lake offers peaceful activities for walkers, photographers and birders.
Gather the work group or family, because kitchen shelters and picnic tables make Nolte a sweet spot for low-pressure company gatherings, Sunday picnics and family reunions.
Nolte might be your perfect afternoon R and R break.

The road winds down a long hill. As it turns it passes a couple of houses, a spring spilling out of the hillside, and what looks like an overgrown R.V. park. A blinking light is a stop sign to either stop or go for cars on either side of a one lane bridge. Only one car from either direction can cross the bridge at a time. The Green River Gorge Road (or Lawson Road as it is known in Black Diamond) crosses over one of the most beautiful sections of the Green River Gorge…and one of the more accessible areas outside of Washington State Parks.
