Redmond Central Connector
Linking Redmond’s Bear Creek Trail and the ever-popular Sammamish River Trail, the Redmond Central Connector cuts right through vibrant downtown Redmond. Flanked by grassy fields for running around, cool lounging benches and nighttime lighting, this urban path provides lots of elbow room for riding, strolling or toddling. It's also refreshingly calm, even on nice-weather weekends.
Find it: The main parking area for the Redmond Central Connector is located off Bear Creek Parkway in Redmond.
Trail details: The flat, paved trail stretches 2.3 miles, connecting to other trails in the area.
Nearby: Once the ride is over, play and shop at Redmond Town Center or run around at the city’s downtown park. Then refuel with burgers at Tipsy Cow Burger Bar, followed by a cone from the legendary Molly Moon’s.
Next trail: East Lake Sammamish Trail
