Urban Trails: Seattle
Seattleites often play in the mountain ranges they can see from their city―but sometimes you just need a hike you can do before lunch. That’s what you get with Urban Trails: Seattle.
A thriving city of more than seven hundred thousand residents within a metropolitan area of nearly four million, Seattle has become a big city, with rapid growth and an increasing number of new arrivals every year. Thanks to the foresight of early city planners, however, the city's large park system contains a wide array of trails that traverse manicured lawns, nature preserves, old-growth forest groves, historic districts, and vibrant neighborhoods―as well as trails that travel along lakeshores, cascading creeks, and stretches of Puget Sound shoreline.
Features of this guide include:
- Easy to reference maps
- Trail distance and high point
- Indicates trail suitability for walkers, hikers, and runners
- Trailhead amenities
- Info for families with kids and for dog owners
- Sidebars on area history, nature, and sights
Details:
- Paperback
- 256 pages
- 4.1 x 0.6 x 7.1 inches
Located in Seattle, WA and founded in 1960, Mountaineers Books is the nation's leading independent publisher of outdoor recreation, lifestyle, and conservation books.Â
