Federation Forest is a day-use Washington state park on the White River in King County. Its old-growth forest includes Douglas fir, western hemlock, Sitka spruce, and western redcedar. Visitors can walk or bike on roughly 12 miles of easy to moderate trails through forest and wetlands, use three picnic areas and two reservable shelters, and stop at the Interpretive Center, which covers the Muckleshoot Tribe and the effort to protect old-growth forest. Parking requires a Discover Pass, and the park is closed in winter.
