Swan’s Trail Farms: The Ultimate Family Playground

  • Located right on the banks of the Snohomish River, this farm is famous throughout Washington for its creative layouts and kid-focused attractions.

  • The Washington State Corn Maze: This is their "claim to fame." It is a massive 12-acre corn maze designed exactly like a map of Washington State. As you walk through, you "visit" over 250 towns and landmarks. It’s both a fun challenge and a mini geography lesson.

  • The Petting Farm: Kids can get up close with goats, sheep, and cows. It’s very clean, safe, and designed for interactive feeding.

  • The Cow Train & Duck Races: For younger children, the "Cow Train" (barrel cars pulled by a tractor) is a huge hit, as are the old-fashioned rubber duck races using manual water pumps.

      A Perfect "Family Fun" Itinerary:

    • Morning: Head to Swan’s Trail Farms. Conquer the Washington State Corn Maze and let the kids burn off energy on the "Giant Jumping Pillows" and hay slides.

    • Lunch: Stay at the farm for their famous Roasted Corn on the Cob and a cup of fresh apple cider.

    • Afternoon: Drive 5 minutes into Historic Downtown. Stop by Top It Yogurt for a treat or visit the Blackman House Museum to see what life was like for kids 100 years ago.

    • Evening: If the family still has energy, walk the Riverfront Trail to watch the sunset over the water before dinner.

    •  

      • Live Pig Races: Several times a day, they hold "The Pig Show," where guests cheer on racing pigs. It’s loud, funny, and a quintessential Snohomish experience.

      • Seasonal Perks: If you visit in the summer, they have incredible U-Pick strawberries and raspberries. In the fall, it transforms into one of the state's largest pumpkin patches with cider donuts and wagon rides.
