Shoreline Richmond Beach Park
The City of Shoreline is one of Seattle’s closest suburbs. Located immediately north of Seattle, the area was settled first by homesteaders and soon after by vacationers. Over time a community formed, and although Seattle’s boundaries had pushed farther north, Shoreline has preserved it’s autonomy and, in 1995, incorporated as a city in its own right.

The route includes a section of the Centennial Trail which extends into the town of Snohomish. This diverse walk goes through two parks, around a lake, and continues along a lovely riverfront trail.
