Paseo rápido en bici de Seattle a Yarrow Point

Looking for a scenic, mostly paved ride from Seattle to the tranquil enclave of Yarrow Point? This 17.7 km route is a great way to escape the bustle of downtown and enjoy the Pacific Northwest’s leafy neighborhoods. Setting out from Seattle, you’ll pedal through a mix of dedicated cycleways and quiet residential streets, crossing over Lake Washington (yes, you’ll get those iconic water views!) and climbing a bit—about 231 meters of ascent, so be ready for a few gentle hills.

About half the route is on bike paths, so it’s beginner-friendly and relaxed, with very little time spent on busy roads. Concrete and asphalt surfaces dominate, but keep an eye out for the short segments where surface info is sparse—always good to be a little cautious.

Your destination, Yarrow Point, is a charming, small peninsula east of Seattle, known for its wooded lanes and lake views—a nice spot for a post-ride breather. Overall, this ride gives you a lovely blend of urban energy and suburban calm, perfect for a chill half-day outing or a scenic weekday commute.
