Green River & Interurban Trail Loop from Ft. Dent (Easy)

Join us to explore this segment of the Green River, Interurban and Puget Power Trails at an easy pace (<10 mph, slowest rider sets the pace).

We will meet at the southeast corner of the Starfire Sports Complex parking lot (immediately to your right as you enter the parking lot) which is inside Fort Dent Park. Bathrooms and drinking water are available at the start, inside the Starfire Sports Complex. Bathrooms are also available at the halfway point in Van Doren’s Landing Park.

On this segment of the Green River Trail, we’ll ride south from Tukwila to Kent. The trail follows the meandering Green River and displays a surprising amount of nature and beauty while traversing the South Center shopping area, past the stunning Vietnamese Martyrs Parish Catholic Church, and through former farmland that is now light industrial parks. We’ll ride along levees, some of which failed during last year’s flooding, wetlands and parks. At Van Doren’s Landing Park we’ll head east on the Puget Power Trail which skirts the Green River Natural Resources Area and serves as a connector trail. Then we’ll ride north on the Interurban Trail back to the start point. 

Please be ready to ride at 12 noon. We will start with a required safety briefing and roll out when that’s done. All riders must attend the safety briefing to participate.

Bring a spare tube and tools to fix a flat, just in case. Please have full fenders if the roads are wet, or you may be asked to ride at the rear of the group.

Note: If weather conditions meet the weather cancellation criterion listed in the Weather Status or if there are unforeseen hazardous riding conditions or other unexpected events, the Ride Leader will post a ride-canceled note in the Comments section below at least two hours prior to the start and Ride Leader(s) will not be at the start location.

We hope you can join us!
