Lake Sylvia Park Trail Improvements

Category Overview

State Parks grants help preserve and develop our state’s best outdoor recreation areas by funding new campgrounds and amenities to increase the capacity of our parks, creating new parks, improving park resources, and protecting historical areas. These grants help our state continue to develop our world-class parks system to share our cultural heritage and natural treasures with all of its visitors.

Project Highlights

Washington State Parks will use this grant to improve the loop trail at Lake Sylvia State Park. This project will replace four bridges, two boardwalks, one box step, and one section of new trail around a dangerous slope. The completion of the trail upgrades will also allow for restoration work to take place where casual trails have negatively impacted the natural landscape. The primary recreation opportunity supported with this project is passive trail use.
