Event information

Daily - 8:00 a.m. to dusk. Tumwater was founded next to the falls of the Deschutes River at the south end of Puget Sound as New Market in 1846 by a group of pioneers led by Michael Simmons and George Bush. It was the first American settlement on Puget Sound. These early settlers were attracted by the water-power potential from the falls, the easy access to Budd Inlet for shipping, and the open prairie land in the area for cattle grazing. Walk goes through Tumwater Falls Park, Watershed Park, Trillium Park, residential neighborhoods, and the business district. Tumwater Falls Park open at 8:00 a.m. & closed at dusk May - October & closed at 4:30 p.m. November - April & is closed Christmas Day. 20K Woodland Trail Option. Caution - trails may be slippery when wet. Walking partner is recommended for Watershed & Trillium Parks.
