Confirmed from Kla Ha Ya Park'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.

Scenic

Small green space along the Snohomish River offering walking & biking paths, fishing & picnicking.

🏞️ beautiful scenery 6 mentions

“With a set of stairs that leads down to the river you can go from crowded "downtown" to scenic waterfront almost immediately.”

As far as parks go this one is on the small side, however location is everything as far as this park is concerned. Set among downtown Snohomish this is a great place to stop and rest your feet as you enjoy ice cream in the shade of the trees.

★★★★☆ — Josh , Aug 2016

Very nice park in Snohomish antique district. Provides access to the river walk as well as nice river views. We saw para-gliders above this area which was a pleasant surprise and photo op.

★★★★★ — Bill , Jun 2017

Beautiful place to go on a walk, especially when the sun is out. Then when walk is finished you can head on over to the Snohomish Bakery or Todo Mexico for a bite to eat.

★★★★★ — Dpsmichel , Mar 2019

Snohomish and Kla Ha Ya park are excellent places to visit for any reason. A nice walk, a bite to eat, some shopping, a few drinks. Its all their.

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.
