GoHike - Alumni Urban Walk - Luther Burbank Park

Beautiful Lake Washington views as we walk along a gravel and dirt path. Part of this 3 mile, 260 ft elevation urban hike follows a boardwalk through wetlands and then past a large community pea patch. GoHike Urban Walks are outings of at least two miles or longer that take place on city or suburban streets, parks or greenbelts led by GoHike leaders and geared toward beginner walkers, hikers or those who are looking for easy to moderate walking opportunities outside of our annual GoHike Course season.
