Confirmed from Centennial Trail's own listing, the park or land manager's website, and runner reviews. Blank cells mean we could not verify that fact — we would rather say "not reported" than invent one. There is no Easy / Moderate / Hard rating on this page on purpose: a one-word difficulty score tells you nothing about whether a trail suits your run. Surface, distance, shade and hours do.

“Very scenic, generally well maintained.”
“Beautiful scenery, GOZILLIONS of blackberry, salmonberry, and thimbleberry bushes line miles and miles of the trail so of course I had to stop to eat more than once!”
One of the nicest trails that snohomish county and the city's along it have worked together along with Burlington northern santa fe railroad to connect each other, a very scenic trail system on the old railroad lines that ran throughout snohomish county.
The Snohomish County Trail connecting from Northside Skagit to Southside Lynnwood is a 30-mile stretch of fun and excitement like walking, adventure hiking, jogging, running and biking. In between cities you can sit back and relax to any alongside picnic tables and enjoy the beautiful countryside scenery.
This point in the trail has a gorgeous view of the river and also an amzing walk into the more wooded part alomf the river. Over all both centennial and white horse trail are both beautiful trails to hike walk ride a bike or even just sit and enjoy the greenery
Paved even grade trail, great for biking or running. Very few road crossings, so is ok to ride with kids
