Rockport State Park 51905 State Rte 20, Rockport, WA 98283
Nestled in the foothills of the North Cascades lies Rockport State Park, which offers 600 acres of rare old-growth Douglas firs and western red cedars towering above a lush forest floor carpeted in ferns and mosses. This day-use park offers a peaceful retreat for nature lovers, birdwatchers, and hikers who want to step back in time to experience the untouched beauty of the Pacific Northwest as it once was. While Rockport itself offers plenty of winding trails through lush vegetation for every experience level, more adventurous visitors can tackle Sauk Mountain, a 5,400 foot summit that offers breathtaking panoramic views of the Skagit Valley and surrounding peaks.
