Day Trippin'
Got a free day? See everything worth doing within a 1, 2, 3 or 4-hour drive of home.
Drive times are by road on a typical day, worked out from OpenStreetMap data (© OpenStreetMap contributors, ODbL) with the OSRM route planner. Map outlines and highways: US Census Bureau. ZIP places: GeoNames (CC BY 4.0). Forecasts: National Weather Service. Opening dates are the usual ones; check before you go. Traffic, ferries and weather can add time.
How Day Trippin' works
Most people don't know where they want to go. They know how long they want to drive. Enter your ZIP and Day Trippin' shows the waterfalls, hikes, beaches, small towns and views you can reach in 1 to 4 hours, measured on real roads (mountains and water bend the rings), grouped by the main roads out of town.
Every spot has the why, the passes you'll need, the best season and a heads-up before you go, checked against official sites. 189 spots across Washington so far, from the Olympic coast to the Palouse.
Tap Plan my day on any spot for a timed day: when to leave, a stop on the way, the main event, lunch, a second stop and when you'll be home, with sunset times and what to bring. Save it to your Trip Planner, add it to your calendar or start driving.
