| Echo Lake Park and Interurban Trail |
The neighborhood walks have become so popular that the Echo Lake History Walk is scheduled on both Saturday April 20, 2024 AND Sunday April 21, 2024.
Saturday is at 10am and Sunday is at 1pm. They will be the same route and presentation.
Explore neighborhoods, parks and trails on some of the best walking routes in our City. Designed for adults ages 50+ but open to all ages and abilities, each walk is led by a Volunteer Walk Leader and all walks are free. No need to sign up, just show up at the meetup location and we'll take care of the rest! Friendly dogs on a leash are welcome to join.

Echo Lake History Walk & Talk
Learn some Shoreline history as we walk completely around Echo Lake. There will be longer stops than usual to hear about history and look at old photographs and maps.
Afterwards there will be an optional extension to walk on the old Trunk Road route for those who want a longer walk. We may walk all the way to the Crista to see the old 1914 Tudor-style administration building.
Come 15 minutes early if you would like to tour the Native Plant Garden. It was planted by fourth grade students in 2009 - 2011 and is maintained by student volunteers.
- Walk is approximately: 1.5 miles/1.5 hour. Optional extensions are 1.5 miles or 2.5 miles more.
- Walk Rating: Easy (History Walk) Moderate (Extended Walk)
- Meet at: Echo Lake Elementary School, 19345 Wallingford Ave N.
- Park on 195th Street, near the Echo Lake School Native Plant Garden.
- Walk Leader: Donna
