Do you know Eastrail?

King County is building a new paved trail for walking, biking, and rolling on the Eastside. Let us introduce you to Eastrail, a wide, flat trail with amazing scenery.

From Renton to Snohomish, Eastrail will run 42-miles connecting the communities east of Lake Washington.

King County Parks is designing a new 1.7-mile Eastrail segment to cross Interstate 90 (I-90) in Bellevue. We want to let you know what’s happening with the project and share what’s ahead.

Eastrail Overview 

The 42-mile Eastrail will expand opportunities to get outside and experience one of the world’s most beautiful places. Built on a former rail line, this paved trail welcomes everyone to commute, bike, stroll, play, and do more outside.

Have you been on Seattle’s Burke-Gilman? Eastrail is similar but for the Eastside. Eastrail is wider, longer, and connects to more transit. 

You can enjoy 18-miles of Eastrail today, including the Cross Kirkland Corridor and the Redmond Central Connector. Several new Eastrail sections will open in Bellevue and Woodinville in the next few years. 

Six cities are connected by Eastrail-

  • Snohomish 
  • Woodinville 
  • Redmond 
  • Kirkland 
  • Bellevue 
  • Renton 

Eastrail connects to 175-miles of regional trails including the I-90/Mountains to Sound Greenway, 520 trail, and Snohomish River trails.
