Directions

A deeply wooded ravine park that feels like a forest canyon hidden inside a residential neighborhood, with a creek running through old-growth Douglas firs and cedars. The trails descend into the ravine and feel genuinely wild — it's one of the best places in Seattle to forget you're in a city. Connects to the Burke-Gilman Trail for cyclists. The ravine can be muddy and slippery in wet weather, which is most of the year.
