Combining a family cycle session with an educational adventure is a breeze at Seward Park, an iconic southeast Seattle park occupying the Bailey Peninsula of Lake Washington. Start at the Seward Park Audubon Center, where kiddos can learn all about local flora and fauna; then follow the bike and walking path through the 300-acre park. Look for native plants and cool bird species as you ride, then finish up with a romp at the awesome nature-themed play area.
Find it: Seward Park is located at 5900 Lake Washington Blvd S. in Seattle.
Trail details: The 2.4 mile paved path takes you through the park, along the beach. Those who are more confident on two wheels can explore the rugged forest trails.
Nearby: Follow up your active day with a browse through the amazing children’s section at Third Place Books (which is also home to Chuck’s Hop Shop and Burger Press).
Next trail: Lincoln Park
