Confirmed from Cheasty Greenspace at Mt. View'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.

★★★★★ — S , Feb 2024

Amazing volunteers and mission to foster a community green space for all to enjoy. Note for visitors!: This is not a public park but a work in progress. There are no official trails. Volunteer a few hours with Friends of Cheasty and learn about the space and its potential!

★★★★★ — Alex , Sep 2019

I love this little slice of greenery. Although not a large space there are lots of paths to explore and new things to see. There are also some great trees to climb! I have never seen any evidence of illegal dumping or camping here, which is a rarity in Seattle parks.

Trail conditions & character

What this trail is actually like underfoot and overhead, taken from its own listing and from reviews. Each one links to every other trail with the same character. Busy or quiet is reported as a plain fact, not a plus or a minus — a runner heading out alone at dawn often wants company on the path, and someone running intervals wants an empty one.
