In the heart of Redmond, the Bear Creek Trail provides an important connection between two rail-trails. On its eastern end it connects to the Sammamish River Trail and, on its western side to the Redmond Central Connector. The trail itself is pleasant and tree-lined as it winds along its namesake creek just south of Redmond Town Center, which offers shops, restaurants, and entertainment.
Parking can be found in Bear Creek Park and Redmond Town Center (7525 166th Avenue NE).
Walk near the restored mouth of Bear Creek. Wide paved path along a business park. This used to be a golf course. Freeway traffic across the creek. You can make it a loop by walking the rails-to-trails branch thru downtown Redmond. But they are building a light rail station there in 2021.
TrailLink is a free service provided by Rails-to-Trails conservancy
(a non-profit) and we need your support!
