Soaring Eagle Regional Park

Issaquah Alps

updated 4 months ago

The trails in Soaring Eagle Regional Park are generally in good condition, with some reports of muddy spots and a recent blowdown that partially obstructs one trail as of April 17. Wildflowers, including salmonberry, are blooming, adding to the spring scenery, May 14. The main parking lot is free but can fill on nice weekends, with additional street parking available at a second trailhead. Signage is helpful throughout the park, which features a tangled network of trails suitable for running and biking.
