Ridgefield National Wildlife Refuge Ridgefield, WA 98642

"Beautiful place to have a peaceful time. Take binoculars with you, there’s many bird species, deers, swans, goose and colorful landscapes. Auto trail is cool, just follow instructions, stay in your car and don’t bother wildlife. Take your trash with you. We had the chance to see pink and water ferns in the creeks. Some trails may be closed for protection and conservation. Many birds migrate seasonally to this area."

"This is a well kept park with a few walking paths, most of which are seasonal. The northern section is primary for walking. The southern section has a walking path but the highlight is a tour you take while driving your own car. I highly recommend the tour, during which you download an audio tour guide on your phone (or pop in a CD which you can borrow from the kiosk) and drive a loop around a lake. The audio tour talks about the animals and plants at different checkpoints along the route. Super simple and thoughtful. I will be going back in the summer when more of the paths are open."

"Such a beautiful, peaceful place to drive through on a rainy day! It must be awesome during the warm, sunny months! We saw many different kinds of wildlife. There were 100's of Swans!"

"Entrance fee is a 3bucks they have an envelope for people near by entry, they have a public restrooms. Please don’t bring your pets(dogs) they really focused wild animals in there. We walked around 2miles during we saw deers, snakes, hawks, Beavers and so many unique birds so they don’t want to Dogs are barking, chasing, hunting at them. So Do not Bring your dogs PLEASE.
