If you were coming to visit me here in Federal Way, WA, I'd want to show you the version of this city that I've grown to love over the past 25 years. The quiet forests, the salt-air beaches, the places we grab coffee, the parks where my family has spent countless hours and now with the brand-new convenience of the Light Light Rail opening on December 6, it's even easier to access the area. Not only will this allow easy access to SeaTac Airport and downtown Seattle, it will open up even more possibilities for exploration and activities beyond the big city. Whether you're planning a weekend getaway, making a day trip, or using Federal Way as a base to explore the South Puget Sound region, here is exactly where I'd take you and what we'd do together.

If you're road-tripping through Scotland {which I highly recommend!}, there's a good chance your route will take you from Edinburgh toward the Isle of Skye. It's one of the most scenic drives in the country filled with lochs, glens, and highland peaks that look like they've been plucked from a storybook! Along the way, there's one stop you absolutely shouldn't miss and that's Steall Waterfall near Fort William.
Tucked deep in Glen Nevis, Steall Waterfall {sometimes called An Steall Ban, meaning "The White Spout" in Gaelic} is one of the most beautiful and accessible hikes in the Scottish Highlands. It combines everything travelers love about Scotland-the dramatic mountains, lush greenery, and a sense of untouched wilderness with a trail that's short enough for most visitors to enjoy.
Whether you're spending a few nights in Fort William or simply looking for the perfect stop between Edinburgh and the Isle of Skye, here's everything you need to know about hiking Steall Waterfall.
