Confirmed from The Park at Bothell Landing'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.
Set along the Sammamish River, this park has a historical museum, amphitheater, play areas & paths.
What runners say about The Park at Bothell Landing
“The paly area is well maintained and right under a huge tree protecting them from the sun.”
“The park is beautiful, and the small bridge is a highlight, offering a fabulous view as the Sammamish River flows gently underneath.”
“Lots of beauty even in winter, for a fresh air walk that's not muddy after a rain, not next to vehicles going by, enough people around to not feel isolated, yet not crowded.”
Lots of beauty even in winter, for a fresh air walk that's not muddy after a rain, not next to vehicles going by, enough people around to not feel isolated, yet not crowded. Public restrooms one person at a time with flush toilets. These days, a year into covid restrictions, that's hard to find.
Beautiful river-side park with walking/ biking paths. The path links up with the Burke Gilman trail, so you can go even further if you want. There are small boat and bike rentals available.
I had a great time visiting The Park at Bothell Landing. The park is beautiful, and the small bridge is a highlight, offering a fabulous view as the Sammamish River flows gently underneath. It’s a perfect spot for a peaceful walk and to enjoy nature.
Plenty of parking, nice restrooms, shaded areas. This was my second time paddling here and they have rentals available too for getting on the water. Really such a beautiful time on the river, if you go to the right of the dock it can lead you to the main lake.
