Volunteer Park Date: Peaceful Paths + City Views

Slow things down with a stroll through Volunteer Park, a Capitol Hill classic known for its winding trails, lily ponds, and sweeping hilltop views. Climb the historic brick water tower for a panoramic look at the city, wander through the exotic plants inside the glass Conservatory, or stretch out on the grass for a picnic near the Seattle Asian Art Museum. The setting is quiet and romantic, offering the perfect mix of nature and culture for couples who want to connect without leaving the city. After your walk, enjoy French-inspired fare and wine at Violet, sip margaritas and share tacos at Rocket Taco, or keep it casual with cocktails and sandwiches at Bait Shop.
