We rode this a few days ago to get between the Sammamish River Trail and the Snoqualmie Valley Trail. I was on a road bike, and needless to say I had to walk the first hill, but the trail is otherwise pretty rideable. There is one weird part near Snoqualmie Valley Road, when you take NE 133rd Street to get down the hill. 133rd street has signs saying "no trespassing" and it's unclear if bikers are actually allowed there or not.
Rode 30 miles from Blyn to Port Angeles in 3 hours 45 minutes with my dad, we had hybrid road bikes and had a decent time of it. The path is mostly pretty good quality and well-marked except for one part where we got lost in a Sequim residential area.
The first part of the trail is uninteresting with limited views of the sound and it's pretty up and down. Most of it is paved, but not all as the short description of this path indicates.
I didn't really know what we were getting into and only planned for the ride to take a couple of hours but ended up being too steep for my dad to ride in some of the creek crossings so we were delayed. I'm just a hobbyist rider so maybe I was simply unprepared but make sure you know that this path has a fair amount of elevation changes. When we did finally get to Port Angeles on the water, it was awesome! I have a feeling that we ended at the best part of the ride.
Enjoyed, but if I did it again, I might start on the West end and ride it the other direction and end sooner when the views start to wane.
The path runs by river and farms for some time and is beautiful. Nice ice cream stop in Orting.
Isn't this the "John Wayne" Trail? Awesome and maintained trail... sometimes a bit "rocky" verses "gravelly." And the rocks can be pretty sharp, got a flat tire on my last ride on the trail.
Incredible that I’ve been speeding on the highways and bridges just above this trail For decades and never knew they were there! I finally got to explore this Trail and loved it. So many bridges!
As a 72 yr old person, I try to walk 4 or 5 days a week. When the weather is nice part of my walk is on the interurban trail through Pacific. Over the last couple of years, the portion between Ellingson Rd and 3rd Ave NE is falling apart. I have to be very careful and not step in a hole and fall.The southern part past 3rd is being extended and is very nice. I just wish someone could check out the before mentioned section. Also, it must be about time to repaint the circles around the holes. The paint is almost worn off.
It starts in a calm stand of conifers with a fairly steep 100 ft climb but is otherwise flat and smooth. The condition of the trail surface is firm enough that it can be safely ridden with a road bike (which I generally do). The crossings with major roads are through short tunnels. The sections through the neighborhoods along Lake Wilderness is quiet and the section through the park is very peaceful and provides access to a disc golf course.
Complete Flat Ground for all Longboards but it is pretty short of a ride if you attend to push yourself to the limit, lots of food and much more!
Found Garmin Astro 220 GPS dog tracker for a dog named BOOMER. Matt at Renton Honda.
I love this trail. Rarely too crowded, Well maintained, and lots to see. My only complaint is in the middle section, around snoqualmie, there is no trail. You have to ride on the road. There is rarely heavy traffic here but the road has little to no shoulder. The signs to get back to the trail and a little sparse. There is no sign on tokul road to pick up the trail between snoqualmie and carnation. You just have to know where it is. Hint. there is a little parking area off the road, the “stairs” to the trail are across the street
Rode this trail, loved it!
