- Fort Ward Park (wta.org)
Fort Ward Park has a rich history and a variety of trails. This park used to be a military fort to protect the navy yards in Bremerton. It was closed in the ‘60s and has been public land ever since, first as a state park and now as a local city park. You will find a few remnants of this military past along the beach, but the majority of the park is in a natural setting.
- Fort Ward to Blakely Harbor (wta.org)
This trail links Fort Ward Park to Blakely Harbor Park via a forested corridor. These two areas are great destinations, but this trail in-between is a beautiful journey on its own.
