Street parking on Alki Avenue is available for the full length of the trail. There are a handful of parking lots for beach access and public greenspaces. Parking near the eastern terminus may prove difficult, as it is largely industrial.
This is an enjoyable ride on a sunny and/or dry day. Great views of the city. Lots of restaurants and people watching on the west part of the trail. If the weather is great, be prepared for lots of people walking/skating/randomly standing on the trail.
Very pleasant ride. On warm days has a combination of skate boarders, joggers and families walking. The rode is divided for wheeled vs pedestrians in certain places.
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!
Great trail around north end, however numerous roots in sidewalk the further south you get on the west side. Also, quite busy with walkers and runners if weather is decent. Be careful
This is a nice, easy trail along the water front. Great for roller blading, long boarding, and running. It's a good easy ride for bikes as well. Crossing the brides isn't all that exciting unless you like looking at train tracks and shipping yards. The trail gets quite busy near the beach when it's sunny so watch out for traffic.
