Lord Hill Regional Park
Puget Sound and Islands
Lord Hill Regional Park trails are reported in excellent condition. As of a report on June 25, 2026, the Temple Pond loop is recommended, while the West View Trail offers no view. Trails are wide, well-maintained, and shared with horses and mountain bikes, so expect company. Parking was busy on May 10th, but trails were less crowded. A bear warning sign was noted at the north trailhead on April 29th; parkgoers should be aware of potential wildlife encounters. No obstacles or road status issues have been reported.
