Paramount School Park, Shoreline
A great outing choice for families of different ages and interests, Shoreline’s Paramount School Park caters to everyone, including scootering tots and wobbly bikers practicing their skills. A cool skate park lets scooter and skateboard pros show off their moves.
Siblings not up to biking can have a blast at the large updated playground featuring an impressive climbing wall, tunnel slides and old-school merry-go-round. The open, partially fenced layout makes it easy for parents to keep an eye on playing kiddos while supervising a little one riding around the looping path. Bonus: There’s adult exercise equipment right next to the play structure for grown-ups to keep active.
Find it: Paramount School Park is located at 15300 8th Avenue N.E. in Shoreline.
Trail details: There’s a mostly flat, light-traffic path circling a large grassy area.
Nearby: Kick back with a latte at Café Aroma while the kiddos play with toys in the designated playroom; or catch a movie at neighborhood favorite Crest Cinema Center.
