In Short
Seward Park is a shining example of how a little foresight can provide a natural and beautiful in-city retreat for urbanites. Old growth Douglas fir forests and towering maple trees are preserved on 277 acres carved by glaciers that jut out into Lake Washington. Amenities include barbecue grills, a fish hatchery, an outdoor amphitheater and a splendid 2.5-mile loop for runners, bikers and skaters that showcases Lake Washington and the city.
