Soos Creek Trail
Being closest to my home, this was the first trail I tackled.
The Soos Creek Trail follows the scenic Soos Creek Valley 6 miles as it meanders through woods, wetlands, and meadows. This paved trail with a separate soft-surface equestrian path star ts southeast of Renton at 192nd Street SE and continues south to near Lake Meridian in Kent. The trail traverses extensive riparian and wetland areas on elevated decking, wanders through upland forests, and crosses open meadows offering wildlife views. Highly popular with walkers, hikers, bicyclists, and equestrians seeking to explore the natural environment, the trail provides a quiet respite among south King County’s urban communities and a destination for active recreation. Access is provided at Soos Creek Park at SE 208th Street and near Lake Meridian Park at 148th Avenue SE at SE 266th Street. A convenient connection with the Lake Youngs Trail is available via SE 216th Street.
