Helping Restore the Urban Forest
Friends of the Burke-Gilman Trail at Sand Point is dedicated to the restoration and preservation of Seattle's longest trail and skinniest city park.
Our Focus
The Seattle portion of the B-G Trail runs from the northeast city limits to Shilshole, but this site focuses on the sections of the trail from University Village north to Matthews Beach. This four mile stretch consists of varied environments ranging from wetlands to sunny bare slopes to densely treed areas.
