Duwamish Hill Preserve is a 10.5-acre public open space in Tukwila dedicated to conserving and enhancing its rich Native American cultural history, ecological significance, and community impact. Rising above the Duwamish River, the hill once served as a strategic vantage point where Native Americans could watch for incoming groups and communicate along the river valley. It also holds deep cultural resonance as part of the southern Puget Sound Salish oral tradition, appearing in the stories collectively known as the Epic of the Winds.    

Public art throughout the preserve invites visitors to engage with this layered history. At the base of the hill is a Salish Cultural Garden complemented by illustrated interpretive signs created by local artist Mette Hanson. Etched bench backs share moments from Tukwila’s past, offering quiet places for reflection. On the northwest side, a large granite installation—Journey Through the Seasonal Rounds—depicts the traditional uses of native plants, honoring the enduring relationship between the Duwamish people and the land. Together, these artistic elements, cultural stories, and natural features create a meaningful, immersive experience for all who visit.    

Thanks to the efforts of partners including Friends of the Hill, Forterra, and the City of Tukwila, the site has been actively restored since 2004 and now features an outdoor classroom, the Cultural Garden, an enhanced trail system, and ongoing volunteer restoration opportunities.    

About the Artist:    Mette Hanson has over 20 years of experience as an interpretive professional creating exhibits, artwork and classes that cultivate connections between people and the natural world. Drawing upon an extensive background in art, education, and science, Mette specializes in creating signage that is both artistic and enlightening. To ensure accuracy and bring the story of a place to life, she conducts meticulous research from many angles: from consulting with local experts and studyi

Halwo Kismayo Grill is a celebration of traditional Somalian cuisine. Established in 2011 in Tukwila, this locally-owned restaurant strives to “capture the spirit of Somalian hospitality and the warmth of shared family meals.” Open for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, it’s a great place to stop if you need a quick bite to go, or want to sit down to a leisurely meal. Either way, you’ll be treated to friendly service and dishes made from fresh, locally-sourced ingredients.     

As one reviewer put it, “This is one of those places you don't want to tell anyone about and keep all to yourself. The food was wonderful - great flavor, reasonable prices, and huge portions.”   

Need to Know:   
- Signature Dishes: Halwo Kismayo Grill is known for homemade Somali favorites such as sambusas, crispy, triangular pastries that are filled with seasoned meat or vegetables. Similar to samosas, they’re perfect for a snack or appetizer.   
- Other popular items include mandazi, deep-fried, donut-like treats, and chapati, (also known as roti), a type of soft, flat, unleavened bread. Order chapati on its own, or enjoy it in a dish such as katakata, a Somali dish made with beef, chicken, fish, or lamb cooked in a sauce with onions, tomatoes and spices. The chapati comes mixed into the stew, so it soaks up all the delicious sauce.    
- Somali-style Pasta: Those unfamiliar with Somali cuisine might be surprised to learn that pasta is a staple food, though it’s very distinct from the kind of pasta you’ll find elsewhere, often incorporating spices such as cardamom, cumin, and cloves. At Halwo Kismayo Grill, you can order Somali-style pasta with various meats such as goat and lamb.     
- American Comfort Food: In addition to Somali cuisine, you can order Philly Sandwiches and Wraps, quesadillas, burgers (choose from beef, chicken, fish, or lamb), and chicken wings. There are also fusion dishes, such as french fries topped with spicy chicken masala.

The disc golf course at North SeaTac Park is a challenging 27-hole, par 87 layout stretching roughly 10,000 feet total, making it one of the longer courses in the Seattle area. The mostly flat terrain mixes wooded fairways and open holes, requiring both accuracy and distance, with wind often adding difficulty. Known for its physical demands and pro-level feel, a full round can take 2–3+ hours, and the course is best suited for intermediate to advanced players.

Restrooms are at the northwest corner of the parking lot by the ball fields. There is no drinking water on the course. Concrete tees and Mach X baskets keep play consistent, and the park’s paved paths make carts workable.
