This park in Edmonds features 120 acres of open space with plenty of branching, interconnected trails for exploring. The trail system on the south side of Olympic View Drive is easy and relatively flat, featuring some hills that roll through the quiet forest. Trails intersect and wind around each other; it is easy to get quite a bit of mileage in this park.
The much larger portion of the park that lies to the north of Olympic View encompasses several forested ravines and Perrinville Creek, flowing through the eastern portion of the Park to Brown's Bay on Puget Sound. Many of the trails in this area are rough and hard to follow. This makes exploring the north section more challenging, but it's a beautiful area worth investigating.
