Redmond Powerline Trail

This is a wonderful trail, for hikers of all abilities. Running under the PSA power lines, it runs from, roughly, the 1200 hundred block of the Sammamish Slough Trail, to Farrell-​McWhirter Park. It’s comprised of a semi-​wide dirt path that winds through woodsy and residential Redmond. There’s a fairly steep climp up from the slough trail, eastward, until the Red-​Wood Road, and be advised that there are a few, large street crossings (ex., the Red-​Wood Rd, where there is a pedestrian light and crosswalk, and also on NE 104 St, mid-​block. No light here, but a well-​marked crosswalk at least). The majority of the trail is flat and it’s a bit over 3 miles in length. I love seeing horses and riders occasionally here, and there are quite a few runners. Ending at Farrell-​McWhirter Park is just lovely (see my review of that park). THis makes for a fabulous family «trek», ideally ending with a picnic at the park!
