Sightseeing

Mt Pugh (pronounced Pew) is very strenuous and requires some technical, class 4 scrambling moves to reach the top. However, the trail itself is high quality and the views are stellar. Along the way is Lake Metan, a worthy hiking destination in and of itself.

This trail traces the path of the original rail road out to Darrington. Primarily gravel, to goes all the way to Arlington and hooks up with the Centennial Trail. A great place to ride your gravel bike or go for a nice easy walk. Just head north on Railroad St - the trail starts behind the IGA.

Food scene

This is a Darrington staple. They have a wide selection of different beers and ciders that they brew in house - from Scotch Ale to Jalapeño. Outdoor seating has a serious misting system - this is the place to go to cool off.

The place to go in Darrington for coffee. Also serve ice cream and beer. Food selection is good too. It would be my choice for breakfast or a place to find a salad.
