The Sammamish River Trail is a 10.1NaN recreational pedestrian and bike path rail trail in King County, Washington that runs along the Sammamish River from Blyth Park in Bothell to Marymoor Park in Redmond as part of the “Locks to Lakes Corridor.” It connects to the Burke-Gilman Trail at its northwestern end, and to the Redmond Central Connector at its southeastern end.[1]

Route

The trail is paved for bicycle, inline-skate and pedestrian use and is paralleled for most of its length by an unpaved equestrian trail. It passes near the Chateau Ste. Michelle, Columbia and Silver Lake wineries in Woodinville, as well as the former site of the Redhook Ale brewery, which was leased by DeLille Cellars, Sparkman Cellars and Teatro ZinZanni.[2] [3] It passes by Sixty Acres Park.

The trail has a very slight grade for its entire length.

On the northside, the trail turns into the Burke-Gilman Trail.[4]
