I can’t remember what I was googling that led me to this place, but a photo of a dinosaur sculpture popped up and I had to find out more. See, my 4 year old loves dinosaurs, art, and hiking (and camping). So, I looked more into this place and decided I had to take him. Well, he got sick and couldn’t come camping with me, so I went in search of the dinosaur alone.

What a lovely 1KM hike through a forest with beautiful sculptures nicely placed. Very imaginatively done. Art stuff may not seem like a kid thing, but I truly think a kid with an imagination and sense of adventure would absolutely love this trail and the art. And….I mean…there is a dinosaur hidden on the trail after all. Who doesn’t like dinosaurs?

No dogs allowed. Bathroom is a port-a-john. But a perfect place to enjoy.

This was a nice place to get out and take a short walk and stretch our legs during a road trip.
The loop itself is a little over half a mile and has art pieces displayed along the way.
Parking is scarce. I think there were 8 regular parking stalls and 1 handicap stall.

Cool little park with a short hiking path and neat art along the way. The entrance is a little hidden off the road, but opens to a small parking area. It wasn't too full on a weekday afternoon.

Delightfully impressive park! Saw it on the map while road tripping and stopped in and was a highlight of the trip. Placing the works amongst the forest provides a very striking and contrastive backdrop. The walk is easy to moderate and not long. Felt very safe and quiet. Great place for walks with kids or to get away for a moment.

Such a nice walk through the woods with many amazing sculptures.

Most of the installations are right on the trail and there's a handy information sign with included QR code for each exhibit. By using the QR code you can find out more about the art and the artists behind the works.

A few of the installations were up in the branches, or a little offer trail in between the trees. The kids had plenty of fun looking for those (especially 'Pegasus' & Gorilla).

There's also an Augmented Reality exhibit that requires no hiking at all. This was interesting and reminded me a little of William Gibson's 'Blue Ant' trilogy. The software was very easy to use and extremely fast.

Trails are well maintained as is the art. Great little side quest thing during our day trip adventure.

Cool forest but maybe a little creepy

Found this place on Google while planning a trip to Canada. Pretty easy to find not fast from the hwy. It was a nice stroll and it was great to see some amazing sculptures. I'm always amazed of people's talents. It was great to see the different types of art and learn about the artists. Such a great area and it was free. I also enjoyed the sign book at the end. Although I'm by no means artistic I felt compelled to contribute. I definitely stop by again if I'm ever in the area.

What a fun little forest walk! Easy enough for kids and everyone, with fun sculptures every minute or two. The option to go down Whimsy Way was so fun... my favorite sculpture was probably the deconstructed tree trunk, and the Cloud Heron floating between the trees was a big hit with the kids.

I would recommend this to anyone who wants to get out into nature for a bit, but isn't one for long or arduous hikes. We'll definitely be going back next time we're in the area.

Fantastic walk through the many sculptures on display while taking a gentle walk along the trail. Make sure you let your eyes wander, scanning all around you looking high and low. There are many wonderful surprises along the way.
Although no dogs are allowed for obvious reasons. It is well maintained by volunteers.
Enjoy!

Went on the recommendation of the owners of the Anchorage Inn and were thankful they suggested it. The park was a wonderful walk in the woods and the artwork amazed and surprised us with each turn of the trail. It was a warm August afternoon but being in the shade of the trees made it a pleasant experience. The lower trail does wind downhill which means you have to walk back up. My wife said the effort was totally worth it and I agree. Thank you to all of the staff and volunteers for maintaining the artwork for our enjoyment.

I love this place! My daughter and I enjoy walking the trail and viewing the art. Just wish dogs were allowed on the trail.

Do not leave Whidbey without letting yourself wander through, explore and experience the Price Sculpture Park.

Beautiful sculptures tucked within nature. Easy trail through the woods will take you to each sculpture. A guided virtual tour is available. Perfect jaunt out for the entire family!

Handicap parking right by the archway. Easy level trail for my mom (94 yrs old!) to navigate with her walker. Interesting sculptures and a beautiful forest loop. There are two loops. The level loop is only 0.6 miles. A pleasant stroll.

This place is magical. It was such a wonderful experience walking through well-maintained trails and breathtaking forest listening to gorgeous birdsongs surrounding us, enjoying all of the unique sculptures they had, many of them felt like a tribute to the beautiful forest backdrop. I highly recommend anyone in the area to check this out, and I will definitely be making this a stop each time I visit Whidbey.

This is nature and art rolled into a really cool nature walk. We had a great time seeing the different art sculptures both on the ground and suspended in the trees. I'm not much of an art kinda guy but there were some REALLY cool pieces in here. Each sculpture has a small plaque on the ground near it with the name and the artist, as well as a QR code you can scan that will take you to their website and explain more about the artist and their creations. It was a beautiful day out so even though there were trees shading the whole trail, it was nice and warm the whole time. Some pieces were hard to find due to them being made from things like chicken wire and suspended from trees but most sculptures were displayed front and center and I was able to get really good pictures of them. There's also a really cool VR display area at the front and after downloading their special app (there's free wifi provided by the park that covers at least the entry area) you are able to scan several different QR codes and then view virtual sculptures in a special roped area using your phone's camera. You can walk around these virtual sculptures to view them from any angle and take pictures of them straight from the in-app camera! It's a very short "hike" and is easy going the whole time so it's a great place to take kids as well. We will be coming back the next time we're in the area.

It's a nice level walk if you stay to the front section there is a second Loop that does have a slight Decline and incline but you were able to bypass it. I utilize a cane with walking and I have no problem navigating the trail. It's free however they do accept donations. It's a very quiet relaxing walk to see some really nice art!
