Price Sculpture Forest, Whidbey Island, 2023

 

 

Sign at the parking area

This was a new place for us to visit near Coupeville on Whidbey Island. The sign is by the entrance and the parking area.  This is a non-profit outdoor gallery, no fee to park or walk through.  Donations are welcome.  There is a port-a-potty in the parking area.  

 

The entry to the loop trail is through this archway 

[Entry arch and kiosks by Michael Hauser and Ken Price]

The trail is two loops, Nature Nurtured and Whimsy Way, linked together to form a figure 8.  The sculptures are placed within the forest along the .6 mile trail that winds up and down and around.  It is open from 8 am to 7 pm (or sunset) everyday year round.  No bikes or dogs permitted on the trails.

Here is a sampling of what the visitor will encounter while walking on the trail through the forest.
