You can’t really go wrong anywhere on the parkway but we love this hike! Take the short hike to the first waterfall or do both and go all the way up. Pick wild blueberries and blackberries in the summer.

Neighborhoods
A small town America feel with independent shops and restaurants. Check the Hendo website for local happenings like festivals, markets, live music and car shows. There’s a children’s museum and aquarium, as well! Hospice Home Store is my favorite thrift store in town, with McFarland’s bakery on the next block over.
