Confirmed from Foothills Trailhead - Enumclaw'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.
Hiking area featuring serene forests and uphill and downhill trails.

Flat, paved path that borders Highway 410 between Enumclaw and Buckley. It now crosses the White River into Buckley. The trail continues for many miles to other towns in the foothills area. My only negative is that some parking areas are targets for vandals and thieves.
First time on the trail, really nice area awesome day for in the middle of January. The trail has portable restrooms and next to the Arbor are a couple picnic tables. Everybody was extremely friendly and a lot of families walking the trail.
Nice people on this trail, it's clean, it's nicely paved it's perfect for biking walking or even skateboards or roller skates. It has many spots that you can veer off the trail to find seclusion. It goes until the white river area by buckley.
