Route Description for Volunteer Park Loop
Volunteer Park is a lovely urban park north of Seattle with colorful flower gardens, an art museum, a playground, and a great view of the Space Needle and downtown Seattle. It’s a local favorite for a break from the urban scenery, so add it to your list for a quick, easy walk.
Begin outside of the art museum, taking a right to cross the road and walk between the small pond and larger reservoir. You’ll walk south of the reservoir and then take the trail on the perimeter of the park. Where the trail splits, go right and then take two immediate rights onto the boardwalk heading north. You’ll walk past the conservatory and playground before hugging the eastern edge of the park. When you reach the four-way split, take a sharp right to return to where you started.
