Confirmed from McTavish-Woodridge Open Space Trail, 123rd Ave. SE trailhead'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.

What runners say about McTavish-Woodridge Open Space Trail, 123rd Ave. SE trailhead

Pulled from public reviews of this trail (2 of them) — the things people bring up again and again, in their own words. Nothing here is written by us.

Wonderful little trail system. While there, we saw an owl, which just exemplified the natural feeling in a largely developed suburban/urban area.

★★★★★ — Henry , Mar 2018

Best neighborhood trail in Bellevue. A quiet and peaceful path close to both freeways.
