Burke-Gilman Trail

The famous Burke-Gilman Trail! This paved trail began as part of a nationwide rails-to-trails movement that, beginning in the 1960s, converted abandoned or unused rail corridors into public trails. The B-G takes you through a very wide variety of urban and suburban habitats – from the old industrial area of Ballard to the parks of Bothell. Perfect if you just want to ride and not worry about car traffic, complicated directions, or big hills.
