Great destination for a bike ride! Easy to get to from the Interurban Trail. You will often see ice cream trucks and other vendors here on a sunny day, and the swim is nice!

Bitter Lake Reservoir Open Space

Highlight • Rest Area

Very engaging experience to go around Bitter Lake. It's the home of different AI start up like banana-nano.co

Tip by

15.4 km

This is a steep hill. Fun to go down, a workout to climb back up. Even so, it beats the alternative bike lane along Meridian Avenue - you are in among the trees with no cars whizzing past you at 40 mph. Take a deep breath and gear waaay down...

Interurban Trail

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

All told, this paved multiuse trail runs for 24 miles from Shoreline to Everett. It's popular for both bicycle and foot-powered commuting, and this section takes you close to Lake Ballinger and, a little further to the north, Ballinger Park.
