Spokane Scenic Spots

It's hard to believe summer is almost over, but there will be a nip in the air before you know it! As summer turns into autumn, we all look forward to the stunning fall foliage that Washington is known for. This is one of the reasons why we love showing homes in the autumn months.

When we speak with potential buyers who are new to the area, we always recommend that they take a short break from exploring Spokane homes for sale to visit some of the area's most scenic spots. Here are a few of our favorite recommendations.

  1. Iller Creek Trail: 9001 E Holman Rd., Spokane, WA 99206
    The 1,233-acre Dishman Hills Conservation Area is home to the scenic Iller Creek Trail. Here you'll find a dramatic landscape where you can take in gorgeous views, wildflowers, and wildlife. During your hike, you'll see beautiful forests, a creek, and you'll have access to the popular Rocks of Sharon. The trail spans 4.6 miles and sees quite a bit of hiking traffic. It's also dog-friendly as long as your furry friends stays on a leash. 
  2. Manito Park & Boulevard: S Grand Ave at 18th Ave., Spokane, WA 99203
    A staple of Spokane since 1904, Manito Park is made up of five gorgeous garden areas. While the spring and summer blooms are stunning, we're partial to the autumn foliage. You'll love the Nishinomiya Tsutakawa Memorial Japanese Garden, with its scarlet maple trees, koi ponds, and footbridge. When you're done visiting the park, take a stroll down Manito Boulevard, where the overhang of golden leaves is truly a sight to be seen! 
  3. Continental Trail: 9711 W Charles Rd., Nine Mile Falls, WA 99026
    The entire 37-mile Centennial Trail is dotted with fall foliage. However, the area that spans from Gonzaga University through Riverfront Park offers the most colorful views. When the weather is particularly clear, you can sometimes catch a glimpse of the leaves reflecting off the Spokane River. This paved trail is open to pedestrians and non-motorized vehicles. 
  4. Green Bluff: 8110 E Greenbluff Rd., Mead, WA 99021
    Green Bluff Growers is a community of family farms, wineries, and more. Here you can pick apples, find pumpkins, and enjoy corn mazes. You'll also want to take some time to shop for homemade gifts and home-baked pies, listen to live music, enjoy locally-sourced food and drinks, and, of course, take in the beautiful scenery. Green Bluff is located just 15 minutes north of Spokane. This is a fun, all-ages adventure that the entire family is sure to love!
  5. Finch Arboretum: 3404 W Woodland Blvd., Spokane, WA 99224
    The 65-acre botanical and tree garden at Finch Arboretum is home to over 2,000 labeled trees, flowers, and shrubs. You'll enjoy wandering through the many trails that wind through the arboretum. Make sure you take a moment to stop by the Garden Springs Creek to relax and take in the beautiful view.
