Hike 17: Bothell-Kenmore-Lake Forest Park

Driving there:  In downtown Bothell, park at the Bothell Landing Park.

Bothell Landing park.

After looking around the park, we crossed the bridge to the Sammamish river trail and turned right.   The trail merges into the Burke-Gilman trail, which is another old railroad grade.

There are several pedestrian/bike tunnels on this section of trail.

The trail is mostly along Bothell way, and some places are kind of noisy.  It's all paved, so wear comfortable shoes.  The trail users are mostly on bikes, with a few pedestrians.  And no horses! 

Heron nests in Kenmore.
 We followed the trail through Bothell and Kenmore, to Lake Forest Park (Ever since I learned to read I've been confused and amused by that name).  As we get closer to Seattle, the trail is alongside the lake and the views improved.  At 153rd we called it a day.  We're almost to Seattle!
