Large park with many trails that are good for kiddos. Non-committal since none of the trails lead too far from the park and parking lot. Playgrounds were in good shape, nice assortment of trails walking and paved walking with baseball fields and playgrounds sprinkled in and even some cannon gun thingys. Nice place.
So convenient and quiet for hiking! No need to drive far out of Shoreline to soak in some nature. Trails and markers and so forest-y. Plenty of parking. Fun trail options to help the park not feel it’s heavily traffic. Nice playground for the kids. Green fields.
The best trail system in NE Seattle metro area Towering evergreens with variable terrains are great for walking running even biking The north end offers a baseball field, playground, covered gazebo and restrooms
I love walking on the trails here, also a great place to take photos while cosplaying. It’s also a great place to fursuit we’ve had good interactions here!
3 stars only due to the desperate lack of signage for the trails. Not even a park map at the entrance. Why? Nothing...well there are a few random white pegs with “> or <" which still leaves you with so many questions. Where is this leading to? So on and so forth.. Just to name one but on the plus side I did see a giant Eagle today, see!
Such a great park nestled in the city. There are a a couple nice playgrounds for kids, but the real highlight is that woods. There are unpaved paths and lots of areas that you just explore. It feels like being in the wilderness when you're just minutes from home. Definitely recommend.
Hamlin is a nice park. If you want a place to feel like you're hiking in the forest on trails this is a perfect park. There's lower Hamlin and upper. Two softball fields and an entry to the park at upper are really all that's at upper. If you're a roller skater skating upper can be nice because of the access to the highschool sidewalks. Lower Hamlin is mostly where all the trails connect and a nice little smooth circular path at lower to skate or walk. I want to say 4 or 5 loops of the circular path is a miles. Enjoy!
Delightfully woodsy spot, nice picnic area under the trees, nicely groomed trails and quite a few of them although they aren't well marked. Most of the time I couldn't hear traffic sounds, always a plus, but on the west side, could definitely hear 15th. Can also see the surrounding neighborhood from several spots. When I'm walking on trails, even in the city, I like a little more of a rural feel--although that doesn't factor into my rating. Because of the lack of trail signage/markers, I kinda want to give 3.5 stars because of this but that's not an option.
Beautiful clean old growth hiking trails and park. Feels safe and remote without leaving the city.
A sweet little park with activities for the whole family: a playground, a walking lap, a baseball diamond, and hikes through the woods. Tucked right in the middle of the city, it’s a hidden gem full of natural beauty and ready for exploration.
